That is excellent. Thanks for the info.
Now is there any way to cross check these against what R actually has
installed? I am trying to think about ways that the R-installer could
be used in combination with the packages... or is the idea to package
the whole of CRAN? Where would such a repo be maintained? How would it
be kept in sync with CRAN?
Please just point me at the relevant docs if I am asking questions
that have been covered before ;-)
Cheers,
Dan.
