David, If you go to: http://www.r-project.org and look at the left hand navigation frame, there is a "Search" link there, which brings up, in the right hand frame, a list of search sites (http://www.r-project.org/search.html), which still includes Robert's site at http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/. The archives there seem to stop at 2012 and the Google search box there seems to be non-functional from a quick check. I have not used his site in years and will use rseek.org these days. It seems to me that I recall discussion in the past about the status of Robert's site, but cannot seem to locate anything at the moment. I am not sure who maintains the R web site these days, but presumably that link should be removed if the search engine is no longer actively maintained.
