mgcv 0.8 released

[Simon Wood]

mgcv version 0.8-0 is now on CRAN. mgcv provides generalized additive
models with automatic smoothing parameter selection. Models may include
smooths of more than one variable. This release fixes one platform
dependent problem that could result in convergence problems/ unstable
models, provides facilities for using multi-dimensional smooths with very
large data sets, provides a mechanism for conditioning smooths on factors,
allows terms like s(x)+s(y)+s(x,y) in formulae and has improved
convergence diagnostics. Full details are at:
