I wrote RInside, and I am unaware of any attempts of mine to either copy,
clone or otherwise imitate any of the non-portable technologies from the
Pacific Northwest I happen to be rather unfamiliar with to boot.  So I fear
that were indeed gravely mistaken. Thanks for trying though.

RInside delivers what it promises: an embedded R instance for your C++
program.  And thanks to the magic that is Rcpp and all of the work Romain and
I put into it, you get a rather rich interface between R and C++ that has no
parallel I know of.

That on the other hand is a true statement and as far as I am concerned a
good thing as well.
