Description: A KDE frontend to the R statistics language
 RKWard is meant to become an easy to use, transparent frontend to the 
R-language, a very powerful, yet hard-to-get-into scripting-language with a 
strong focus on statistic functions. It will not only provide a convenient  
user-interface, however, but also take care of seamless integration with an  
office-suite. Practical statistics is not just about calculating, after all, 
but also about documenting and ultimately publishing the results.
 RKWard is still in early development status.

I understand that you just copied this from the Rkward website, but I'd still 
suggest some editing. See the R FAQ, section 2.1:

   R is a system for statistical computation and graphics. It consists of a
   language plus a run-time environment with graphics, a debugger, access to
   certain system functions, and the ability to run programs stored in script
   files.

That said, I don't mean to discourage you -- I'd be glad to test a package
or two before you upload them.  It will be nice to have this in Debian, and
I'll surely add it to Quantian too :)

Regards, Dirk
