[Rsiena-help] clarification on changelog for RSienaTest rev.93

[Ruth M. Ripley]

Dear Tom,

No, the actors in the ministeps do not yet have an option to leave things 
unchanged. Implementation of this is non trivial, compared to the other 
problems (C++ not R!), so I cannot promise it will be done very soon.

But I will see what I can do.

Regards,

Ruth
