This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-fmultivar package of fMultivar, a
set of functions for multivariate analysis of financial markets data,
and part of Rmetrics, a collection of packages for financial
engineering and computational finance. Code in fMultivar was
previously provided via the fSeries package, but has been moved into
its own package. Both fMultivar and Rmetrics were written and compiled
primarily by Diethelm Wuertz.

This package was created by Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@debian.org>.
The sources were downloaded from 
	http://www.rmetrics.org
and are also available from
	http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/
and all CRAN mirrors as e.g.
	http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/

The package was renamed from its upstream name 'fMultivar' to
'r-cran-fmultivar' to fit the pattern of CRAN (and non-CRAN) packages
for R.
