-### Note on updating versions:
-Some users have found it necessary to delete the package folders before installing newer versions of either dataRetrieval or EGRET.  If you are experiencing an issue after updating a package, trying deleting the package folder, the default location for Windows is something like this:
-C:\Users\ldecicco\Documents\R\win-library\2.15\dataRetrieval
-the default for a Mac:
-/Users/ldecicco/Library/R/2.15/library/dataRetrieval
-Then, re-install the package using the directions above.  Moving to CRAN should solve this problem.
-
-Stable releases are archived on the packageBuild branch of this repository: [https://github.com/USGS-R/dataRetrieval/tree/packageBuilds](https://github.com/USGS-R/dataRetrieval/tree/packageBuilds)
