I was about to suggest that having met one of Lucas' colleagues at the GSoC mentor summit last year :-) Another entry from France was presented in one of the UseR! 2009 sessions: http://www.agrocampus-ouest.fr/math/useR-2009/slides/Etienne+Corvazier+Legros.pdf Their code is at http://code.google.com/p/coalition/ --- it uses Python and Twisted (which we have) and two simple scripts and is not be tied to R per se.
