[R] RE: new packages: geepack and KMsurv

[Sendak, John]

I downloaded geepack from your site and installed it from the zip file.
However, although it appears under my library directory, I could not load
into R.

Subject:	new packages: geepack and KMsurv


I uploaded two packages to cran two weeks ago, and have just compiled them
for windows using the cross-building tools on linux. Now I would like to
anounce their existence.

The first package, geepack, is generalized estimating equations modeling 
for both mean and association structure for multivariate responses. The
DESCRIPTION file is

Package: geepack

Title: Generalized Estimating Equation Package
Author: Jun Yan <jyan at stat.wisc.edu>
Maintainer: Jun Yan <jyan at stat.wisc.edu>
Description: Generalized estimating equations solver for parameters in
mean, scale, and correlation structures, through mean link, scale link, and
correlation link. Can also handle clustered categorical responses.
License: GPL version 2 or later.

The second package KMsurv is a data package for the textbook Klein and
Moeschberger (1997), Survival Analysis. It may be useful in teaching
or studying such a course. The DESCRIPTION file is 

Package: KMsurv
Version: 0.1-1

Author: Original by Klein and Moeschberger

  "Survival Analysis, Techniques for Censored and Truncated Data",
Springer.

The windows version of these packages are available at
    http://franz.stat.wisc.edu/~jyan/mysoft/

I am grateful to Professor Douglas Bates and Professor Jason Fine for
encouragement, discussions and comments. 

Please kindly let me know if there are any questions, comments,
and bugs of course.
