+* Use `tools::analyze_license()` for continuous license checks because `utils::available.packages(repos = "https://community.r-multiverse.org", filters = "license/FOSS")` no longer returns output.
+* Strengthen continuous license checks: an `NA` license (from a failed source build) is no longer acceptable.
