This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-snow package of snow, a package
providing a 'Simple Network Of Workstations' for GNU R, employing
socket, pvm or mpi/lam communication layers. Snow was written by Luke
Tierney, Tony Rossini and Na Li.

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

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