similar to: CRAN now also rsync-able

I've put all ``current'' add-on packages into CRAN's source/contrib tree and created an INDEX file (attached below). As you can see, currently we have acepack bootstrap ctest date e1071 fracdiff gee jpn snns splines survival4 (Yes, e1071 and jpn are new ... more on the latter in a later mail.) In the near future, I am hoping for the following: oz (Bill

As mentioned earlier I want to decentralize the package descriptions of all contributed packages: Please make sure to include a file called DESCRIPTION in every package which looks like: ********************************************************** Package: e1071 Version: 0.7-3 Author: Compiled by Fritz Leisch <Friedrich.Leisch at ci.tuwien.ac.at>. Description: Miscellaneous functions used

Hi, due to some FTP problems in Auckland and me not being in office yesterday R 0.64.2 took some time to travel from Denmark to New Zealand and then back to Europe ... but now it is finally available at the CRAN master site http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/R here in Vienna and it should propagate to the various miroors within the next 24 hours or so. Best, Fritz

Hi, we had a broken heating system (in the floor above us) resulting in a water burst .... my office looks like if a bomb has exploded ... Currently our server is up and running again (it was down over the weekend) ... but we will move out of the devastated rooms and hence the CARN master might be down one or more times during the rest of the week. We'll try to keep the down times as short

Hi - a tiny bug report: the list of mirror sites given at www.r-project.org/ mentions http://cran.mirror.aarnet.edu.au/ This domain does not exist (well, from Western Australia netscape says the domain doesn't exist) but I found the mirror at http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/CRAN/ regards Adrian Baddeley -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Hi, is there any way to exchange (A LOT OF) data between SPPS and R/Splus, i.e., I want to get data from SPSS into R. It is a huge data frame with many columns being factors, so manual conversion is out of question (and there are more data to come). Exporting ASCII from SPSS seems to loose all level names, and the portable SPSS format doesn't look too nice. I've searched S-news and

Hello all R users and developers! In the "Notes on R" I have found the following information: (page 60, 13-th footnote) "... a better solution is to use the fig() driver (available from statlib) and use a conversion program, such as fig2dev, to convert the resultant fig code to Encapsulated Podtscript." I was very glad to read it, because I'm often forced to use

Dear R Developers, the following CRAN packages do not cleanly pass R CMD check for quite some time now and did not have any updates since the time given.

Dear R help users: I have set up a r help mailing list archive based on mysql which support full text search and auto-update. Please visit http://www.baidao.net/r/maillist/index.cgi . I hope you could provide me bug reports and suggestions. I will add r_dev and r_announce mailing list as soon as possible. Thanks in advance! eLan
