[R] Where is the best place to get ALL the changes between versions?

[Michael Grant]

There seems to be a change in the behavior of the
function ' mean() ' in 1.40. 

In earlier versions, the application of mean to a
dataframe (all numeric)would return the aggregate mean
of all of the columns. Now, in 1.40 application of
mean to the dataframe returns a list of the column
means. The new 'help' documents the new behavior. So
the change is obviously intend

I read the "changes" document distributed with 1.40
and saw no mention of 'mean'. Is there a place where
all of the changes are documented? This would be a
help in maintaining/upgrading models and would save
tedious debugging in the longer.

Also, to the development team---do something nice for
yourself today. R is really a very superb tool and JOY
to use. (LT, Lisp-stat still rates way up there too!)
