With the right intro text, I'd say that they could move to contrib. I'd expect the ts things to be superseded by later events.

I had no idea anyone was interested in this stuff or had bothered even to put it forward... This was originally my S-PLUS front end to some work of Miller & Nguyen on finding D-optimal designs with blocking. Had I known someone was interested in porting it to R I may have found some time to work on it. As it is I will not. If the contributor (Halvorsen) does nothing more with it I think it should be just dropped. There are problems with the Fortran and it would take some work to get it going. The S code is unnecessarily complicated as well. (I did it some time ago when I was younger and more ambitious...) -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Venables, Statistician, CMIS Environmetrics Project.

The "bats" library is obsoleted by ts. I'm not doing any further work on it.
