survey package

[Thomas Lumley]

Version 1.9 of the survey package, now percolating through CRAN, adds a
beta implementation of replication weights.  These can either be created
from a survey design (using BRR, JK1, or JKn schemes) or provided by the
user.  These have been tested on only a few examples so far: there seem to
be relatively few published datasets with suitable analyses.

As with earlier versions of the package, I particularly welcome feedback
on the user interface from practising survey statisticians.
