[R] odfWeave fails to load

[Bond, Stephen]

Uwe, 

Just a user's perspective: there are too many packages that work only on the maintainer's box and it would benefit the community if there were stricter standards for allowing people to post a package. Open systems like Ubuntu have a ratings sytem that allows users to review packages, so the few bad apples are properly labelled and can be avoided by the community.
Kind regards

Stephen B

See

http://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_odfWeave.html

which indicates the package has some problems. Hence CRAN does not make binaries available. Please contact the maintainer.

Best,
Uwe Ligges
