We have just published the fourth issue of R News on
http://cran.R-project.org/doc/Rnews
where you can download the newsletter as PDF or postscript file. It
will propagate to the CRAN mirrors within a day or two.
This is the first special issue of R News, with an emphasis on
applying R in medical statistics. It is special in many ways: first,
it took longer to prepare than we had originally antipicated (which
typically seems to happen for special issues). Second, the newsletter
file is rather large as there are many exciting images---in fact, in
trying to keep the size reasonable, in some cases images are only
included at a lower resolution, with the ``real stuff'' available from
the respective authors' web pages. And finally, articles are fewer
but longer: as many of the applications described are based on recent
advances in medical technology, we felt that extra space with
background information was warranted.
Contents:

For the editorial board,
Fritz Leisch
