## Development
-Contributions are welcome! Your
-[mkin fork](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo) is just a mouse click

-new features in separate branches now. If you prefer subversion, project
-members for the
-[r-forge project](http://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=615) are welcome as well.
-Generally, the source code of the latest CRAN version should be available there.
-You can also browse the source code at [cgit.jrwb.de/mkin](http://cgit.jrwb.de/mkin).
