R devel - Dec 2010 - Bug filed on unzip() function

Hi,

A few days ago I filed a bug report on the unzip() function:

  https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=14462

I haven't gotten any comments yet, so I thought I'd ask for comments
here.  I also see on the description of R-devel that the list "also
receives all (filtered, i.e. non-spam!) bug reports from R-bugs", but
I don't see it here.

Eventually I would like to help unzip() gain large-file support, such
as is offered by http://info-zip.org/UnZip.html version 6.0.  A
corresponding zip() function would be nice too.

Thanks.

 -Ken

This message contains a good question:

Is there any reason why the bug reports are no longer mailed to R-devel?
I'd appreciate to get a notice what is going on in the bug repository 
without having to look on those web pages.

Best wishes,
Uwe
