I have built the RPM's for Mandrake 10.0 community, 9.2 and 9.1 which will propagate through CRAN as usual. I have also made them available at this address: http://web.rossoalice.it/michele.alzetta/ On this page the work in progress of translating "An introduction to R" to italian is also available (about 60 % done). -- Michele Alzetta <michele.alzetta at aliceposta.it>
