Historical data

There's an important shortcoming of historical data. The links in the historical data in the checks field are not date specific. If you go to a link in historical data, for example for April 2nd, 2020, links in that set of data link to whatever the current check data is for that package. The check_details field is date specific though; the text is scraped from the package checks page each day and stored, so you can count on that to be date specific. There are sometimes links to further checks, often of compiled packages on various types of checks that CRAN runs; we do not have those check results - we could get them but have not take the time to sort that out.
