Dirk, listeners, Perhaps you would consider using omegahat's RHTMLForms instead?
library("RHTMLForms") forms <- getHTMLFormDescription("http://xmpalantir.wu.ac.at/cransubmit/ ") submit_to_cran <- createFunction(forms[[1]]) Should create a function called "submit_to_cran" with arguments corresponding to the webform blanks, e.g. submit_to_cran(name = "packagename", email = "youremail", uploaded_file = "package.tar.gz", comment = "the optional comment") (clearly you could fill those details in from the submitting package description). I haven't tested this.
