Err -- Knowing no better way to see how $CRAN/src/contrib changes, I keep a
browser window on http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/?M=D -- and it
started to show it yesterday.  In effect this URL works just fine:
http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/1.9.0/ 

Were you pointing to a mirror that's lagging behind?
