  2. R 4.6.0 "Because it was There" is set for release on 24 April 2026.

  4. For organisations in the UK using or adopting @Posit working with a local partner can simplify procurement and delivery.

  5. Most Posit issues do not start with a visible failure.

    They build up through configuration choices, version drift, and infrastructure decisions that no longer fit how the platform is used.

    Over time, this leads to unstable deployments, timeouts, security concerns, and harder upgrades.

    At Jumping Rivers, our Posit Health Check reviews configuration, servers, versions, and security to surface risk early.
