This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-nws package of nws which provides
NetWorkSpace (NWS) support for GNU R.  nws was written by REvolution
Computing <nws-support@revolution-computing.com> with support and
contributions from Pfizer, Inc.

This package was created by Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@debian.org>. The
sources were downloaded from CRAN at 
	http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/

The package was renamed from its upstream name 'nws' to 'r-cran-nws' to 
fit the pattern of CRAN (and non-CRAN) packages for R.
