I wondered if there were standard practices in CRAN for delivery of R source 
implementing functions in R packages. I has encountered a couple of packages 
where the gzipped version of source contains very little, primarily the Help 
files describing the functions in the package. In some cases I can find the 
source as the value of the function name.

Given that these packages are released as GPL, oughtn't the unoptimized source 
be freely available, hopefully with comments? Am I missing something? Is there 
a central place other than mirrors where such source is retained? Sourceforge?
