gregmisc 2.0.0
===========

gregmisc 2.0.0 has been released and is now available on CRAN.   

Important Changes
---------------------------

- Now a package bundle 

For this release, gregmisc has been split into a bundle containing 4
separate packages: gdata, gmodels, gplots and gtools. All of your favorite
functions are still present, but they are now better organized into thematic
groups, which should make them easier to maintain.

- Namespaces

Each of the gregmisc packages now provide namespaces, and are fully
compatible with R 2.0.0.   The namespaces make it easier to avoid conflicts
with functions in other packages, and prevent local utility functions from
cluttering up the global function namespace.

Consequences for Users
------------------------------------

Instead of attaching the gregmisc package, you will need to attach the
appropriate individual packages.  IE, instead of
	> library(gregmisc)
you should use one or more of
	> library(gdata)
	> library(gmodels)
	> library(gplots)
	> library(gtools)

For more details, including bug fixes, see the ChangeLog file in the source
distribution.
