[R-sig-hpc] Using CRAN packages with RHIPE in user-provided Map and Reduce functions

[Saptarshi Guha]

Hi
There is a mailing list for rhipe. Also we've moved to ml.stat.purdue.edu/rhipe

The documentation is beingobef into the package.

In the setup you can type
linbrary(ackagename)

Are you getting errors?
