Cc: <br><br type="attribution">This is no secret to those who read the NEWS file of the development version regularly, as the following has been in place since December 12th:<br>
<br>
\section{\Rlogo CHANGES IN R-devel}{<br>
\subsection{SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES}{<br>
\itemize{<br>
\item It is intended that this version will be released as \R<br>
3.0.0.<br>
....<br>
<br>
However, it seems reasonable to supplement this with a more direct public announcement.<br>
<br>
The intended timing is to follow the annual release schedule and have R 3.0.0 around April 1 and a finalizing 2.15.3 a month earlier.<br>
<br>
Major R releases have not previously marked great landslides in terms of new features. Rather, they represent that the codebase has developed to a new level of maturity. This is not going to be an exception to the rule.<br>
<br>
Version 1.0.0 was released at a point in time when we felt that we had reached a level of completeness and stability high enough to characterize a full statistical system, which could be put to production use.<br>
<br>
Version 2.0.0 came out after strong enhancements of the memory management subsystem as well as several major features, including Sweave.<br>
<br>
Version 3.0.0, as of this writing, contains only really major new feature: The inclusion of long vectors (containing more than 2^31-1 elements!). More changes are likely to make it into the final release, but the main reason for having it as a new major release is that R over the last 8.5 years has reached a new level: we now have 64 bit support on all platforms, support for parallel processing, the Matrix package, and much more.<br>
<br>
On behalf of the R Core Team,<br>
<br>
Peter D.<br>
<br>
Happy New Year!<br>
