And as usual the @Debian package has been prepared and uploaded (but to 'experimental' as a release freeze is ongoing). The usual CRAN 'backports' for @Ubuntu and @Debian should be coming shortly thanks to @marutterstat and @JohannesRanke

In which I run code I posted fourteen years ago: it works unaltered. That should be cherished, celebrated--and encouraged. We need more examples like this.

What an absolute legend. May he rest in peace.
Ran within sight of him during one or two of my Boston (where everybody is pace-sorted), and he was of course not only a generation older than me, but pushing his son in the runner-chair. Made it look effortless. Beyond impressive.

So read this thread, the article and background piece and the web app. #rstats
