[R] RE: R-1.6.1 is released

[Liaw, Andy]

Doug Bates had posted a link a while back, a company selling R on CDROM.
Don't remember the name.

Would the R Foundation be interested in selling the CD (or subscription of
CD) as a mean to raise fund for development?  (Sort of like the TeX-live CD,
I guess...)

Thanks, Peter! Looking forward to it.

Now: does anyone know if it is possible to get a CD with the
whole of CRAN on it, from anywhere convenient for the UK?

Being largely obliged to download by modem, it's not practical
for me (and quite possibly for many others) to have the whole
of CRAN conveniently to hand; yet I'd dearly like to have it so!

Best wishes to all,
Ted.
