Win binaries

I just noticed that problem on the cran.us.r-project.org site and will
correct it there.  It is just the link and the text on the index.html
page that is wrong.  The binary is actually there.

You can download the binary as

 http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rw1070.exe

Try using this URL as it looks like the links on CRAN are bad:

http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rw1070.exe

As an alternative, you can also use this FTP based target:

ftp://cran.r-project.org/pub/R/bin/windows/base

which will provide you with a list of the Windows files.

The file that you want is: rw1070.exe

I have cc'd Duncan Murdoch on this as an FYI.  I thought that I saw 
something on this in the past day or two but cannot locate the post.

HTH,

Thanks Marc.  Yes, that link works, the ones that are currently on
CRAN don't.  I'm not sure how I those rw08 links got there, but it
happened when I added the links to the FAQs to the page.

I've fixed the base copy of the web page, but it takes a while to show
up on the public web site.
