[R-SIG-Mac] R 2.8.1 for Mac OS X released

[Simon Urbanek]

R 2.8.1 for Mac OS X 10.4 and higher was released on 12/22 and is  
available from CRAN.

This update is recommended for all users. If you have installed R  
2.8.0 before, you can use the smaller file (R-2.8.1-mini.dmg) to  
upgrade. Users of older versions have to use the large image  
(R-2.8.1.dmg).
Besides issues mentioned in NEWS for R 2.8.1 this update also improves  
the compatibility with 3rd party binary package providers and  
addresses an issue where a few packages did not have a working CRAN  
binary for R 2.8.0.

MD5 checksums for the released files:

MD5 (R-2.8.1.dmg) = c43581d6ebede51fee2da8fb5292b2c7
MD5 (R-2.8.1-mini.dmg) = 4cd1ff20d029a06523d9345a7e1bf582

Cheers,
