[R-SIG-Mac] R 3.6.2 installer / Catalina / Notarization

[Roy Mendelssohn - NOAA Federal]

$!$!$$$@!+!.  

So I went there,  still saw old version.  Cleared cache,  went again,  still saw old version.  Cleared cache again,  went there,  saw new version.  Grrr.  The kind of small things that drive me nuts.

Thanks,

-Roy

As discussed before we cannot notarize any version of R before 4.0.0 so Catalina users have to either stick to 3.5.1 (since Apple has grand-fathered installers create before Catalina) or use the Ctrl+click way to install R 3.6.2.
