[R] a question regarding s-plus libraries and R

[Andrew C. Ward]

Andrej, you may need to be more explicit about the
precise capabilities that are lacking in R. For
instance, there is a package on CRAN called norm
that is based on work by Joseph Schafer. If you're
aware of this package and it doesn't do what you
want, perhaps there are others that do (survey,
hmisc, mice, etc).
