Does anyone knows a KMeans ++ package for R?

Dear Pascal,

From Wikipedia:

In applied statistics, k-means++ is an algorithm for choosing the
initial values (or "seeds") for the k-means clustering algorithm. It
was proposed in 2007 by David Arthur and Sergei Vassilvitskii, as an
approximation algorithm for the NP-hard k-means problem?a way of
avoiding the sometimes poor clusterings found by the standard k-means
algorithm.

Dear Rui,

What "++" means?  There is kmeans in "stats" package.

Best Regards,
Pascal
