2006-06-09  Martin Maechler  <maechler@stat.math.ethz.ch>

	* R/diagMatrix.R (setAs): define coercion methods to sparse matrix
	classes.

	colSums(), rowSums(), colMeans(), rowMeans() now should work for
	all "Matrices".

2006-06-01  Douglas Bates  <bates@stat.wisc.edu>

	* R/lmer.R (panel.ci): Add a reference line at zero and a
	background grid to the qqmath plot of ranef.lmer.

	* R/Tsparse.R ("["): column or row subsetting; @Dimnames[k] got
	erased when it was NULL.  This led to invalid subselections!

2006-04-25  Douglas Bates  <bates@stat.wisc.edu>

	* R/dtCMatrix.R: avoid coercion of dtCMatrix object to dgCMatrix
	in method for "t" so as not to lose the unit diagonal property.

	in cs.[ch] and utilities to interface to that code in cs_utils.[ch].
