Would it make sense to add links and/or mention the relevant
appendices (A and D) of "R Installation and Administration"?

I do not understad, what your question is all about.

Maybe you should be more verbose.

Do you want to make the document better,
or do you have questions on how to understand
what it talks about?


Ciao,

I am trying to do a classic

R -d valgrind --vanilla < mypkg-Ex.R

as described in
http://cs.swan.ac.uk/~csoliver/ok-sat-library/internet_html/doc/doc/R/2.9.1/doc/manual/R-exts.html#Using-valgrind

The problem is valgrind crashes imediately.

LOL.

...maybe you can use valgrind to debug valgrind... :->

Ah, yes,there are TODO lists, thanks.

This is at least some kind of thing yi was looking for.
But these are personell TODO lists.
Are their any goals for R as whole project?

I'm not a friend of seperating design, coding, documentation, ...

IMHO this should be something that is not seperated.
And I also think, that the way, R packages will be written
(code as well as documentation together) uses the same
kind of philosophy.
I was very happy about this close relation between code and
documentation,mthat is necessary to wrte a package.

I thought the same holds true for R project as a whole.
So I maybe was wrong with this assumption.
