Ubuntu is a commercial distribution, for loose definitions of commercial. Why shouldn't they cut a deal with Revolution, who is doing a very similar thing? If you want something closer to the ideal of volunteer-driven free as in beer and speech, you'll need to stick with Debian. Canonical and Revolution have very similar business models. And they just happen to have similar relationships to volunteer-driven development in Debian and R-Core. -tony AJ Rossini blindgl...@gmail.com ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
