Isn't r-announce supposed to be moderated?  I posted to r-announce about a
minor update in randomForest and was rejected.  I was told that it's meant
for new or significant upgrades in packages, etc.

Yes, indeed.
Of course, it *is* moderated -- BUT it's gatewayed to R-help
before moderation.  And that's where Sandrine's (two identical!)
messages went to (any yes, I manually needed to discard them from R-announce).
