Two packages with many features, dozens of functions and under heavy development to fix bugs, add new features and improve performance, vs. a single operator with a limited and well-defined functionality, and a reference implementation that hasn't changed in years (but certainly hackish in a way that probably could only be improved from R itself). Can't you really spot the difference? Iñaki ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
