Builds for stable are now happening, and should be flowing into the
archives in the next few days. Unfortunately, a lot of the newer
packages require R >= 2.14.0 in order to function, so they'll be
missing. If there's significant need for older packages (or if I end
up needing some) I may backport R 2.14.0 and add an additional
squeeze-backports archive, but I have no firm plans to do that yet.
