Archived copies of the CRAN Repo Policy

### Status

This small project started out as simple monitoring of the single webpage

http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html which was done with 

a few lines of R detecting whether or not the page changed. If so, the new

version was logged, and an email and a tweet were sent.  This is what I made

public on 23 Oct 2013.

Gábor Csárdi sent me an email mentioning the actual SVN repo of the CRAN web

site. The repo contains the actual source, so on 24 Oct 2013 I added a new

shell script to retrieve all versions still in the SVN repo (going back Dec

2011). I will update the monitoring script to simply use SVN as well.

So for now, the best view of the evolution may be the history of the texi

source, eg via

   https://github.com/eddelbuettel/crp/commits/master/texi
