Just downloaded the newest R-patched.tar.bz. DEcompressing and untarring now produces a directory R-beta instead of the usual (for me, at least) R. The file VERSION now says 3.2.2 beta. Just wanted to double-check that there is no mixup of development and patched versions. Thanks, Peter

That is the common pattern leading up to a release. See eg
http://developer.r-project.org/
and I quoteL
The release of 3.2.2 ("Fire Safety") is scheduled for August 14,
2015. Release candidate tarballs will be made available during the week up to
the release.
2015-08-04: START (3.2.2 beta)
2015-08-07: CODE FREEZE (3.2.2 RC)
2015-08-14: RELEASE (3.2.2)
I made a first beta release for Debian on Aug 4th and plan to make one more
before August 14 when 3.2.2 becomes official.

Please test these, and report any bugs asap. Duncan Murdoch
