Thanks to David Smith here is the answer.

It looks like the library will once again appear with Splus, but not until a new release is distributed. Thats good. I don't have questions or favorite needs for specific functions, hence I can't suggest priorities. If others have needs, David has requested that you let him know.

Thanks for the help.

David's Response

Unfortunately, you can't use a pre-Sv4 version (such as from S-PLUS 2000) of the Matrix library with S-PLUS 6.1 for Windows. That library needed a lot of porting from Sv3 to Sv4, and it's not yet available for Windows.

We do plan to reinstate it for a future version of S-PLUS, but probably not before Version 7. We did port the commonly-used determinant function to the main library. If you need other functions from that library other than determinant, it'd help if you and others could let me know which ones, to help me gauge where the priorities lie.
