How to post R packages on cran


Here's the procedure for reference: upload the .tar.gz file, using ‘anonymous’ as log-in name and your e-mail address as password, to ftp://CRAN.R-project.org/incoming/ (note: use ‘ftp’ and not ‘sftp’ to connect to this server, and passive ‘ftp’ is more often successful) and send a message to CRAN@R-project.org about it (with your package name and version in the subject line of the form “CRAN submission package version”, and please do not submit a package by email). For a new submission, please note in the message that you have read and agreed to the CRAN policies.

How to access dbgap authorized files

As of 2/19/2014, I could log in directly through https://dbgap.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/ using the Era Commons ID
Before I had to do the following steps
1. Log into Era Commons 
https://public.era.nih.gov/(you need an Era Commons ID)

2. Goto https://dbgap.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/

3. Click log in

You should be in then.
