We need to take that site down, nothing has been released as an R package 
there for years. Now all of the functionality of released packages is on 
CRAN, and sourceforge is only used as a CVS server by the r-spatial 
project with multiple modules, and rgdal.

To check out the current spgrass6, do:

cvs -z3 \
-d:pserver:anonymous at r-spatial.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/r-spatial co \
-P spgrass6

as explained under the more -> code menu on:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/r-spatial/
