           Summary: R - include R distribution in separate module
           Product: Kepler
           Version: 1.x dev
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: installer

Instead of including the R dist in the core Kepler module, we want to have it
in a separate module so that upgrades to R can occur with upgrades to the
RExpression ("r" module) and vice-versa.
We'll want the installer/build system to support packing up distributions from
modules/suites and this will provide a good test bed for doing just that.
