Yes,  2.15.1  is considered antique,  and nobody should be using
it unless for "Rchaelogy" (the pre-history and history of R
implementations), and so I do occasionally start such a version.

Very good proposal.
Two things:

- We have a *dedicated* mailing list for Debian (and
  Debian-derived such as "ubuntu") Linux distributions:
  --> https://www.R-project.org/mail.html does list the "SIG"
  (Special Interest Groups), including R-SIG-Debian
  which points to http://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-debian

- CRAN itself has sections about this, notably
      https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian/
  will tell you how to tell your debian system to get R from
  CRAN as opposed from the debian repositories.
