 Title: R Interface to the Protocol Buffers API
 Description: Protocol Buffers are a way of encoding structured data in an
  efficient yet extensible format. Google uses Protocol Buffers for almost all
- of its internal RPC protocols and file formats.  Additional
- documentation is available in the arXiv.org preprint "RProtoBuf:
- Efficient Cross-Language Data Serialization in R" by Eddelbuettel,
- Stokely, and Ooms (2014) at <http://arxiv.org/abs/1401.7372>.
+ of its internal 'RPC' protocols and file formats.  Additional documentation
+ is available in two included vignettes one of which corresponds to our paper
+ in the Journal of Statistical Software (2016, v71i02).
