I'm not sure if anybody is actively maintaining the R bundle. I did the exact same thing to the commenting and it's a nice improvement.
Well, I guess I'm passively maintaining the R bundle. I had basically everything I needed, but if you have any suggestions for improvement, I'm happy to add them.
Since you're using R and LaTeX, do you by any chance also use Sweave? If so, I have a mostly-working Sweave bundle that I'd love to share and get a second set of eyes on.
That would be great. I use sweave from time to time too, and I think I may have a partially written sweave language file too.
