R devel - Jan 2016 - Wrong bug ID & URL in Daily News about R-devel/NEWS

I was browsing some recent R news at

http://developer.r-project.org/blosxom.cgi/R-devel/NEWS/2016/01/03#n2016-01-03

And reading this item:

"tapply() has been made considerably more efficient without changing
functionality, thanks to proposals from Peter Haverty and Suharto 
Anggono. (PR#16488)"

But I found that the link in the item goes to a page about the GUI, not 
tapply:

https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16488

It should go to this page for the tapply speed-up:

https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16640

This is probably just a simple typo, since a quick check of other links 
to bugs in the news showed they were all ok.

Anyway, I couldn't see any webmaster contact details on
http://developer.r-project.org/ so hopefully this list message will 
reach the right person.

This is a good place to post typos in the documentation.  I'll fix this one.
