Hi,

I was just looking at the "CRAN Daily Package Check Results"
[http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/checkSummary.html], and
realized there are 1000 packages on CRAN as of today (look at row 3 in
the table below).  Yet another quite extraordinary milestone in R
history.

Last updated on 2007-04-12 11:48:32

Results for installing and checking packages using the three current
flavors of R on systems running Debian GNU/Linux testing (r-devel
ix86: AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2400+ (2GHz), r-devel x86_64: Dual Core AMD
Opteron(tm) Processor 280, r-prerel/r-release: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4
CPU 2.66GHz), MacOS X 10.4.7 (iMac, Intel Core Duo 1.83GHz), and
Windows Server 2003 SP2 (32-bit) (AMD Athlon64 X2 5000+).

        Flavor  OS      CPU     OK      WARN    ERROR   Total
1       r-devel         Linux   ix86    769     135     32      936
2       r-devel         Linux   x86_64  523     101     36      660
3       r-prerel        Linux   ix86    816     154     30      1000
4       r-prerel        MacOS_X         ix86    738     160     95      993
5       r-prerel        Windows         x86_64  787     142     36      965
6       r-release       Linux   ix86    919     63      15      997
7       r-release       Windows         x86_64  908     50      19      977

Hope those WARN and ERROR packages will turn into OK before the 2.5.0
release.  I've tried to do my contribution ;)

While maintaining R at my previous place, I kept track on the number
of package installed, which included almost all CRAN packages, except
a few hard-to-install ones, plus some Bioconductor packages.  This is
my summary:

  20020917   68, R v1.5.1
  20030326 206, R v1.6.2
  20030424 269, R v1.6.2
  20030903 298, R v1.7.1
  20031015 306, R v1.7.1
  20031126 352, R v1.7.1
  20040310 370, R v1.8.1
  20040525 411, R v1.9.0
  20041005 459, R v1.9.1
  20041217 506, R v2.0.1
  20060217 698, R v2.2.1

Quite a growth.  Are there any "official" records like these?

Cheers

Henrik
