[R-sig-Debian] R 3 and Debian Testing

[Lorenzo Isella]

Hello,
Well, it turned out that I had exactly nothing to do.
Since my repos point constantly towards the latest testing, I had just to  
wait till today and I got R 3.0 installed on my box. No need to add any  
extra repository.
Cheers

Lorenzo
