That's temporary: R-devel should point to R-devel, not to the alpha.
Soon there will be three links: one for R-patched (based on 2.13.2,
probably without any changes unless some emergency crops up), one for
R-testing (the alpha, beta, RC series), and one for R-devel (2.15.0-to-be).
"Soon" might mean tomorrow, or it might take longer.
