After so many questions and a considerable delay (almost entirely my
fault), the BRugs package version 0.7-4 has been released yesterday. The
BRugs package is available from CRAN master already as source and in
binary form for Windows and will be synced by the mirrors shortly.
Note the following changes (more details in the NEWS file):
BRugs works on Linux now
BRugs now supports 64-bit R on Windows
BRugs works with an existing installation of OpenBUGS (at least 3.2.1)
instead of being distributed with the OpenBUGS library, hence the
OpenBUGS installation is a requirement.
Both the Linux version as well as the 64-bit version for 64-bit R on
Windows are typically slower than the more native interface used for
32-bit R on Windows.
Thanks to all who helped to get so far. Special thanks to Chris Jackson
for many improvement and all his work to build the Linux part of the
interface.
Best,
Uwe Ligges
