Stas Kolenikov#rstats #lavaan structural equation modeling -- a postdoc developer position at University of Amsterdam https://werkenbij.uva.nl/en/vacancies/researcher-in-methods-and-statistics-specializing-in-programming-and-structural-equation-modeling-netherlands-15033. I am familiar with the package although not with all of the internal class structures and stuff. I would be comfortable working on this after the two book clubs on @hadleywickham's Advanced R and R Packages through the @DSLC community led by @jonthegeek ... but you also need to know the freaking matrix calculus to follow Satorra's asymptotic theory.
