The repository mirrored at every CRAN mirror with base page at 

    http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian/

has been at your disposal for at least half a decade.  Thanks to Johannes, R
3.0.0 is only one apt-get update away, and so will R 3.0.1 come May 16 (plus
a few days for compiling and mirroring) just like dozens of releases before
this one.
