I agree with Moshe.

It is important to maintain the independence of R as a programming language
by itselft, even if it could benefit from Microsoft work (C++ Base Code,
etc.), it is better in my opinion to keep it independent.

Also, Duncan work and know-how shall be transferred to the next future R
Core Developer which will be in charge of Duncan's roles. And, if
appropriate, transfer the scripts Duncan might use, the documentation, etc.

Thank you,
Juan
