I already have spec available for those two and eventually I can propose
them for review.

Did you look at the subdependencies ? I mean that for example quantreg
requires  SparseM tripack, akima, MASS, survival, rgl, logspline
(Which already points out a circular dependency on MASS)...

Maybe worth to have a look at what R P Herrold did since I packaged most
of the cran.
