[R-sig-ME] lme4 MS binary on R-Forge

[Douglas Bates]

In looking at some log files over the last few weeks I think it is
because of the configuration of the Windows compilation system for
R-forge.

Mind you,, I'm not complaining.  I consider trying to develop code on
Windows to be the sort of activity I would only agree to if members of
my family were being held hostage so I am very happy when someone else
does the Windows compilation for me.

I have just uploaded the source package to Uwe's site
http://win-builder.r-project.org/  Assuming that it builds properly I
will make the Windows binary package of the development version of the
lme4 package available as
