Dear Dirk, one should indeed discuss if the packages should remain in the distribution, but please not because I am a bit behind in maintenance. I promise updates for this weekend.
The packages built for CRAN and BioConductor derived automagically via the script you wrote (http://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-bioc/) are usable. The packages update very quickly as you know and hence I'd indeed prefer to establish a single site with all the CRAN and BioC packages over the partial distribution of such within Debian. Though you might have additional thoughts about this.
