R help - Feb 2011 - : package to draw

Do anyone know an R or bioconductor package to draw HGDP pie chart as in the
link below?

http://hgdp.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/alfreqs.cgi?pos=118253964&chr=chr8&rs=rs12255372&imp=false

Many SNPs were missing from the link, so I would like to draw similar graphs in
R. I have all the allele frequency data and would like to draw them into the
worldwide map.

Thank you.

You could use the floating.pie function in the plotrix package, but even the
author of that function/package has stated in the past that pie charts are not
the best tool.  Also look at the symbols function for some alternatives, I would
use the thermometers (and if that does not give enough options then look at
my.symbols in the TeachingDemos package).
