<p>If an OP asks for a R library recommendation (policy under debate in another meta thread, I realize), and no acceptable recommendation exists, what is the policy regarding writing and posting code that accomplishes what the OP needs? In case this is out-of-bounds, what is the in-bounds way of suggesting that the conversation move off CV?</p>
<p>This pertains to a <a href="https://stats.stackexchange.com/questions/395075/">recent request</a> for survival analysis software to support data not (obviously) supported by the R library <code>survival</code>. There is now a bounty on this request, so I'm being egged on to do something.</p>
