spam                  
A collection of functions based in R/Fortran for sparse matrix algebra.
Written by Reinhard Furrer.
The package spam (Sparse Matrix algebra)
is required by the package fields.
Current stable version:
spam_0.20-0.
Current development version:
As above.
Bugs:
For the stable version spam_0.15-4 I have no reported bugs.
For the stable version spam_0.15-2 'spam.list' does not process negative values correctly.
As a result, 'read.MM' is buggy (thx to Luan Sheng).
spam_0.15-[1,0] had a few bugs, namely inconsistencies with 'nearest.dist', Cholesky decomposition with empty diagonal, additionally 'dim<-.spam' and 'spam.list' may clash.
With spam_0.13-1 parts of ade4 stopped working. The error is caused by the by the construction of .Spam. Later versions do not use the .Spam construct.
If you would like to add to this list, let me know.
