R help - Jun 2004 - What happened to the excellent R-Newsletter ?

The last newsletter found on www.r-project.org is from December 2003.

I was looking forward to the next issue, will there be one soon, or what 
happened ?

While I'm waiting for the newsletter I think I will buy some books about 
R and statistics. Is Venables & Ripley, MASS good if you want to learn 
about multivariate data analysis (PCA, PLS, correspondence analysis) and 
how to do it in R ?

Hi Henrik,
MASS, of course, is very good. In addition, for a comprehensive
introduction, I would strongly recommend Peter Dalgaard's "Introductory
Statistics with R".
Very readable and neophyte-friendly , ISwR should be a standard pocket book
for beginners.
