Thanks to Doug Bates (for whom I'm substituting),

The source for R-1.9.1 has been available within half an hour of
Peter's R-announcement from rsync.R-project.org.
You can, for example, use

   rsync -avC rsync.r-project.org::r-release ./R-1.9.1

to obtain a copy of the sources which [you won't be able to use
unless you *compile* them, see the R Administration/Installation
manual.

Binary (aka "pre compiled") distributions for platforms such as
Windows and Mac OS X will be available from the CRAN sites in a
few days.  This will apply as well to GNU/Linux versions such 
Debian, Redhat, SuSE, ...
