Dear Andriy
I would second the advice that David and Ivan have already given.
I woouls also add that I suspect that most users search for packages by
functionality so you might want to study techniques for search engine
optimisation and then advise authors how to increase the visibility of
their packages.
If the goal is just to record all package from your university then why
not establish a page on your university website which links to all of
them? The main problem there will be updating it after you have
graduated and moved institutions.

Hi all!
My name is Andriy, and I�m a student at University of Alcal�, currently working
on my final year project.
I�m tasked with organizing the R packages developed by our university that are
currently available on CRAN. The goal is to enhance their discoverability, to
achieve this the initial focus is on exploring the possibility of renaming the
packages so that they share a common prefix, making it easier for uses to
locate them in the package list.
If you believe there are alternative strategies to achieve a similar result,
please feel free to share your perspective.
Additionally, I�m looking into the prospect of merging two packages that
contain similar functionalities. The aim is to create a more comprehensive
package by incorporation additional features and ensuring seamless
compatibility.
Your assistance is key to the successful completion of my final year project,
and I would be immensely grateful for any insights you can provide. Thank you
for your time and consideration.
Best regards,
Andriy
