Do you intend to package this as r-cran-gstat, in-line with the numerous other R packages based on CRAN sources? I'm just asking as gstat is also part of CRAN, e.g. can be found on http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/ and its mirrros. We have a never-quite-finalized Debian R Policy draft that several of us adhere to, and that we plan to expand -- i.e. we're working on getting all of CRAN auto-built (and apt-get'able, though not necessarily inside Debian as adding 500+ packages may be madness). Feel free to follow-up off-line if you have questions. Cheers, Dirk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
