[R] orca binary?

[A.J. Rossini]

Thanks to Uwe for the binary build -- ROrca 0.4 now is available for
Windows (I've copied his files onto the canonical site, it's available
at 

  http://www.analytics.washington.edu/~rossini/rorca/rorca_0.4.zip

).

For those unfamiliar with Orca, it is a toolkit for building dynamic
interactive visualizations with Java.  ROrca (requires SJava to be
working and installed) allows you to build these using R.  There is an
R script in the same directory as the rorca files which describes use
for multiviews with linked brushing across plots.
