Mac OS X 10.7.3
The Debian / Ubuntu binary packages have it in both the source package and the binary: edd at max:~$ dpkg -L r-base-core | grep parallel.pdf /usr/lib/R/library/parallel/doc/parallel.pdf
Ah... I checked my library and saw that 'parallel' did not exist there. Although
it comes natively with R (afaik), I tried to install it to see if I have the
same subfolder with the vignette:

When will 'parallel' be available for 2.15?
edd at max:~$ I'll shoot a copy off-list. Dirk
