I am happy to introduce the latest stable version 1.3-0 of the 'dclone' R package now on CRAN. The current implementation used in the 'dclone' package is described in the recent paper: Solymos, P. 2010. dclone: Data Cloning in R. The R Journal, 2(2):29-37. URL:
http://journal.r-project.org/archive/2010-2/RJournal_2010-2_Solymos.pdf . Devel version now focuses on polishing the parallel computing interface via the 'snow' package.
Cheers, Peter
