Safetensors File Format

safetensors for R changes hands with no code change to show for it.

r torchtensor formatmlversemaintainer handovercran
Current state
The R safetensors package reads and writes the safetensors tensor format for the torch stack. The single release in view is administrative: maintainership passes to Tomasz Kalinowski. No functional change is recorded.
Where it's heading
With only a maintainer line to go on, the package reads as stable and low-churn. The same handover lands in tfevents two minutes later and in torchdatasets days after, so this is part of a consolidation of mlverse maintainership rather than anything specific to safetensors.
Prediction
The entries do not support a confident prediction about features; the most likely next release is another housekeeping bump tied to the wider mlverse handover.
