gifi build of R

With the unification of R, and the disappearance of the non-Mach-O
version of Carbon R, I think my maintenance job is done. There will
presumably remain a build of Aqua/Darwin R on gifi, although it may
move behind the firewall, but it will be more experimental and less
complete (and not mentioned on CRAN).

You can now get excellent instructions for building R from
Stefano's site, and the Aqua GUI is maturing rapidly. I, for one,
cannot wait to go native and dump all references to X11 and
fink. On my new Panther machine with two PPC 970's.

I would like to thank Jan publicly for his work with R on the OS X 
platform during the last few years. Jan, I appreciate your work very 
much.

Jan,
first of all I would like to thank you for setting "milestones" in  
building R under Darwin and bringing R to Darwin! Thanks!

My request, anyway, is to wait till release R 1.8.0 because only at  
that time we will have one version or R.
This list R-SIG-MAC will be closed by that date as almost all msgs now  
concern R-devel.

I wonder how you already own a Pather machine (!) but it would be good  
to see what's inside for developing.
