In response to an earlier discussion about finding the fastest/best/nearest CRAN site, I geocoded (using my geonames package) the locations of the CRAN sites returned by getCRANmirrors. I've mapped them here:
http://www.maths.lancs.ac.uk/~rowlings/R/Cranography/ The geocoding may have got it wrong, so if CRAN site maintainers want to send me a real lat-long (in WGS 84 aka EPSG:4326) I'll update my map. Maybe eventually lat-long can go in the CRAN csv file distributed with R. Note this is just for fun. No warranties. Maybe I should use a little 'R' as a marker. Maybe I should get a life.
