This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-sn package of sn, a package for
GNU R that provides skew-normal and skew-t distributions.  Sn was
written by Adelchi Azzalini.

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 'sn' to 'r-cran-sn' to
fit the pattern of CRAN (and non-CRAN) packages for R (and to avoid
clashing with the existing package 'sn').
