Dear useRs,

I've just uploaded the new version 1.1-0 of the zoo package for dealing
with regular and irregular time series data to the main CRAN site.
Source and binary packages should be available from the mirrors in the
next days.

There are two changes that are nut fully backwards compatible:
  - The package now has a NAMESPACE and most S3 methods are not exported
    explicitely anymore. If some function needs to be exported for
    useRs/developeRs of other packages, please let us know.
  - By default read.zoo() does not try to produce regular series
    anymore. The previous version could result in misleading
    computations for daily financial data, affecting especially also the
    zoo-quickref vignette. (Thanks to Ajay Shah for pointing this out.)
    The old behaviour can be restored by setting `regular = TRUE'.

For general introductions to the package see:
  vignette("zoo", package = "zoo")
  vignette("zoo-quickref", package = "zoo")

Best wishes,
Z
