[Rd] Possible bug in 'new()' for Reference Classes

Dear list, I think I stumbled across a little bug with respect to the standard initialization routine for Reference Classes. It seems that a field 'self' is treated as if it's name would be '.self' (which we know is reserved for the self reference of the instantiated object itself) and thus

[Rd] Workarounds/solutions to Rd file name conflict when extending a S4 method of some other package

Dear list, this is a re-post of my post to r-help on 2012-30-11. Duncan Murdoch did provide a great pointer to a possible workaround, but I'm still eager to check out other ways. So I hope it's okay to get this out on r-devel now as well: // IN SHORT // What are possible workarounds to

[Rd] Significant memory leak when using XML on Windows

Dear list, I'm sorry to keep coming back with this time and time again, but this bug is still not fixed even though the root cause of the issue has been around for 2-3 years now. And as the number of packages that depend on XML grows, I thought maybe this deserves some wider attention. I did my
