Thanks! How does one know what is the latest official release? Is parsing the R homepage the best way to determine it? Or the latest tarball? Or can I use the latest R-x-y-z tag from the SVN repository? >> and r-oldrel > > > If R-x.y.z is recent, then r-oldrel corresponds to the latest "y-1" version, > i.e. currently R-3.0.3. So this also means that when (say) R-3.0.2 was r-release, 2.15.3 was r-oldrel?
