USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

    o   Underscore '_' is now allowed in syntactically valid names, and
        make.names() no longer changes underscores.  Very old code
        that makes use of underscore for assignment may now give
        confusing error messages.

    o   Package 'base' has been split into packages 'base', 'graphics',
        'stats' and 'utils'.  All four are loaded in a default
        installation, but the separation allows a 'lean and mean'
        version of R to be used for tasks such as building indices.

        Packages ctest, eda, modreg, mva, nls, stepfun and ts have been
        merged into stats, and lqs has been returned to MASS.  In all
        cases a stub has been left that will issue a warning and ensure
        that the appropriate new home is loaded.  All the time series
        datasets have been moved to package stats.  Sweave has been
        moved to utils.

        Package mle has been moved to stats4 which will become the
        central place for statistical S4 classes and methods
        distributed with base R.  Package mle remains as a stub.

        Users may notice that code in .Rprofile is run with only the
        new base loaded and so functions may now not be found.  For
        example, ps.options(horizontal = TRUE) should be preceded by
        library(graphics) or called as graphics::ps.options or,
        better, set as a hook -- see ?setHook.

    o   There has been a concerted effort to speed up the startup of
        an R session: it now takes about 2/3rds of the time of 1.8.1.

    o   A warning is issued at startup in a UTF-8 locale, as currently R
        only supports single-byte encodings.

plus many new features and bug fixes.
