That's all fine with me. You'll note, however, that Zelig can't be
updated rightaway to the current upstream version because we don't
have r-cran-aer (upstream AER) and there are license issues with the
upstream sources.
(In fact if you want Debian Science to take over all the r-* packages
I maintain, it's fine by me.)
