New Rmetrics packages
New Rmetrics appeared earlier today on CRAN [1] -- the Rmetrics.org site has also been updated. fCalendar and fMultivar have been split off fBasics and fSeries, respectively; fPortfolio is new. This brings the total to seven packages. [2] Diethelm: Would it make more sense to release these as a bundle a la VR, dse, gregmisc? Regards, Dirk [1] My single biggest gripe with CRAN is that there is no (elegant) way to see what has changed, or has been added. So I look daily at the sorted listed at http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/?M=D --- but that is so pedestrian! [2] For the record, I updated the corresponding four Debian packages, and created three new ones for the new packages.
