Closing PR: bogind/easycsv#8

Not sure that one will be merged soon (latest update was 6 years ago) even with your PR. Should we close this? Can communicate to CRAN that we submitted a PR over a month ago.

I think no harm in keeping it open while a CRAN release is pending, we can close once the release is official
