Biodem 0.1/orphaning of MAlmig
Together with Alessio Boattini of the University of Bologna we have created a package called Biodem. Biodem provides a number of functions for Biodemographycal analysis, and we hope it will be useful to the anthropological community. Because Biodem contains all the functions found in Malmig (a package I maintain), I would like to orphan it, or, even better, have it removed from CRAN. Finally, Biodem has been build on a Debian Linux box and is therefore not yet available for Windows/OS X; Biodem was built with R 2.0.1 because I am using Debian 'testing' and the new R 2.1.0 is not yet available for 'testing'. I will upload Biodem 0.2 as soon as I can build it with R 2.1. Regards, Federico Calboli
