[Martin Maechler] >2) The oldest stuff that I have is all from 1995;
Mailing lists seem to go back into 1995 too. I found a few messages from around 1994 on topics to be later found within R, but I'm not sure where I got these old messages from. I did find a message really related to R-pre-alpha, which itself quotes a message written in 1994. -- François Pinard http://pinard.progiciels-bpi.ca ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
