R help - Jan 2000 - irregular time series

Hello,

Does R have objects to handle irregular time series data? For example, Splus
uses the "its" object. I suppose I could write my own "its"
function in R.

Thank You,

R has no such classes. S-PLUS has "its" and "cts" and now
has other classes
for calendar time series.  It makes almost no use of those classes though,
except to plot them.  It is unlikely that we will be adding such classes to
R unless they go with something useful to do with them, and if we do they
will need more structure than "its".
