[Rd] CRAN testing

[Gábor Csárdi]

Some (unofficial) tips.

Some of the hardware and software they use is listed here:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_flavors.html#r-devel-linux-x86_64-debian-clang

You can get the current R-release and R-oldrel versions from here:
http://rversions.r-pkg.org/r-release
http://rversions.r-pkg.org/r-oldrel

The environment variables they use for the checks are listed here:
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-ints.html#Tools

The win-builder page also has some hints about what is installed on
the windows test machines:
http://win-builder.r-project.org/

I hope this is useful. I would interested to hear about the progress
of this project, if you don't mind. So if you have an open repo or web
page, please let me know. Thanks.
