If you have a slow connection and/or you don't want to download the entire 
source code you can find the sources for R on this site 
https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/

>Source code for R and all CRAN packages are on CRAN.  If you want the C or

>(the .tar.gz files).  You won't see the code if you just install the
