Thanks to the efforts of Jason Andrade at AARNET and the CRAN people there is now an Australian mirror of CRAN/R. The mirror will be updated daily. It is http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/CRAN/ ftp://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/CRAN/ To quote the web page "R, also known as `GNU S', is a system for statistical computation and graphics. It consists of a language plus a run-time environment with graphics, a debugger, access to certain system functions, and the ability to run programs stored in script files. R implements a language which is not entirely unlike the S language developed at AT&T Bell Laboratories by Rick Becker, John Chambers and Allan Wilks. Indeed in the absence of an R manual, you can (mostly) get along by using the S manual."
