I previously asked a question about performing archetypal analyis in R. In addition to the responses I received from r-help, the author sent me some S code to peform the analysis. With the author's permission, I ported the S code to R using two excellent sets of instructions: (1) From the FAQ - 5.5 How can I create an R package? (2) Thomas Lumley's instructions on porting S to R - http://www.biostat.washington.edu/~thomas/Rlib.html The author of this code is Adele Cutler (adele at math.usu.edu, http://www.math.usu.edu/~adele). With the author's permission, I've made this port available at: http://socrates.berkeley.edu/~lorenmc/R/ Since this is not a full-blown library and hasn't been completely tested with R, I don't think it is ready to be submitted as an R library (it only has one function!), but feel free to download it if you want to check it out or need it to perform some analyses. To the R core team members, this is my first contribution so please to let me if I have gone about this process incorrectly. Thanks.
