Some very minor things:
- typo R-admin manual, section 2.8, fourth sentence beginning "This will
find build...", should read "This will build..."?
- typo in src/library/compiler/man/compile.Rd, line 35:
"\item{ascii}{logical; should the compiled file be saved with in ascii"
should read "...saved in ascii..."?
My build and test was successful (on a very common platform
x86-64/Ubuntu). Typescript here:

Cheers to another release,
Matt

We are now starting testing R 2.13.0/alpba/beta/RC and testing and
feedback would be appreciated (whereas reports on problems immediately
after release will try our patience).
Sources are available at
http://cran.r-project.org/src/base-prerelease/
Windows binaries at
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rtest.html
and Mac binaries at http://r.research.att.com/, specifically
http://r.research.att.com/R-2.13-branch-leopard.pkg
(and it is best to use the CRAN master rather than mirrors which will
lag behind).
Please report (success as well as failure except on the most common
platforms) here, r-wind...@r-project.org or r-sig-...@r-project.org. We
probably have good coverage of Debian/Fedora i686/x86_64 Linux, Mac OS
X, Windows, Solaris and x86_64 FreeBSD 8.2: reports on other platforms
would be particularly welcome.
There have been a number of confused postings about 64-bit R on Solaris:
the R-admin manual in this version contains detailed instructions on
what works for us (Solaris Studio 12.2 and 12u1, and gcc4 on Sparc) and
what doesn't (gcc on amd64) and why.
Package maintainers should review the results for their packages at
http://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_summary.html
and submit updates if needed as soon as possible and definitely well
before April 13. That page is in the process of migration to R-prerel:
for now the most useful columns are r-devel (Fedora), r-devel (Windows,
really R-prerel) and the Solaris x86 column.
