The newest version of R for Unix (version R-0.50-a4) is now (or will
soon be) available from the following sites.

    NORTH AMERICA:
	http://lib.stat.cmu.edu/R/Alpha

    EUROPE:
        ftp://ftp.stat.math.ethz.ch/R/
        ftp://statlab.uni-heidelberg.de/pub/mirrors/auckland/R/

    JAPAN:
        ftp://ftp.u-aizu.ac.jp/pub/lang/R/

    NEW ZEALAND:
        ftp://stat.auckland.ac.nz/pub/R/

Please obtain a copy from site close to you.  Note that New Zealand
is not close to anywhere other than itself :-).

This is a quick snapshot release of the current source tree which is
intended to bring users up to date with the current state of
development.  We are just about embark on some substantial changes
which may take a while to complete, so this seems like a good time to
put out a release.

This is still not the promised "R-0.50 stable", but it is getting closer.

	Ross

It's there.

Compiled and seems to run on Solaris 2.5 (SS 20/50).  

Small problem -- in compiling hclust, it couldn't find my f2c.h files,
and bombed.  

My solution -- move f2c.h to the include directory in the unpacked
distribution directory.  (I also moved libf2c.a to the lib directory,
but I don't think it was needed there?).

best,
