R devel - Dec 2009 - silly SVN question

I followed the suggestions at
http://developer.r-project.org/SVNtips.html to check out an anonymous
copy of the development branch of R, but so far I have been unable to
figure out an analogous way to track the development branch of the
recommended packages. (I'm assuming they actually live somewhere on the
same SVN server, which might not be true ...) Any ideas (including
pointing out the obvious, or the obvious-in-hindsight)?

  thanks
    Ben Bolker

The obvious: the recommended packages are inside
  src/library

https://svn.r-project.org/R-packages/trunk

but

- not all of the recommended packages are there.
- Matrix and survival have migrated to R-forge
- in some cases what is on the svn archive has lagged the release
   version.

It is most useful for the packages maintained by R-core collectively.
