I would like (actually, during on of the R-core meetings at DSC-V99 I was volunteered) to update the `PLATFORMS' file that comes with the R distribution and contains information on supported platforms. I think it would be nice to have a ``database'' with at least the following entries: NAME obvious EMAIL obvious VERSION e.g., 0.63.3 PLATFORM e.g., i386-unknown-linux SYSTEM e.g., Redhat 4.2 CC/FC/MAKE e.g., egcs/g77/make on Suns, MAKE could be `GNUmake' or `Sunmake' NOTES additional info Ideally, not only R-core and the maintainers of binary packages would provide me with such info. In particular, feedback on platforms not mentioned in PLATFORMS thus far would be appreciated. NOTE: I would like to distribute names and email addresses in this file so that people who have problems building R on a `supported' platform would know who to contact. Thanks for all the info in advance. -k -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-devel mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
