[R] change frequency of wind data correctly

This afternoon I will work on that.
I am thinking to stick to Jim's algorithm, changing the hours related to 40 and 50 mins. If I add one hour to them, everything should work correctly, because wind data at 40, 50 and 00 would have exactly the same hours.
This would not be elegant, but efficient.
Also missing data might be easily handled, changing the "mean" function with a function that accepts NA.
But I will study all the solutions that have been kindly proposed.

Thank you all of you
Stefano

Beware of missing or extra records with these approaches. Also may be tricky to get the time aligned to the hour properly.
