Duncan has echoed my thoughts. Just to add: Windows users also need
to monitor the CHANGES file (also available on an RSS feed).
The things that we find hardest to check by automated testing are the
installation process and GUI elements: we do only minimal testing in
languages other English:

Dear expeRts,
I recently asked for help on an issue with S3 methods for lm. The issue
was (in DoE.base 0.9-4)
that function update from package stats would return an error whenever
DoE.base was loaded,
complaining that lm.default was not found
(e.g.
require(DoE.base)

Dear list,
Prof Ripley has replied with the solution - I /was/ doing something
patently stupid.
The offending line:
mf[[names(dots)]] <- NULL
should have been
mf[names(dots)] <- NULL
That the offending line worked in R 2.9.x was the result of bug, which
has been fixed in the current version,

quite a few others that have a chequered past. Given that there are

I haven't had a chance to look really closely at this, but I would guess
the problem is that in R functions are "closures". The environment
