Are you a non-windows user wanting to share your R package with others who do use windows? There’s a handy utility (http://win-builder.r-project.org/)that allows you to upload your .tar.gz file and it checks it, builds it, and sends you a link to download a nice, shiny .zip file to give to your mates. Problem solved.
