OK, now I have another question: I see a wiki at http://fawn.unibw-hamburg.de/cgi-bin/Rwiki.pl?RwikiHome administered by Detlef Steuer I see another at http://www.sciviews.org/_rgui/wiki/doku.php (Phillippe Grosjean) which is nominally geared toward beginners/GUI interfaces. I'm not saying I could do any better, but both of these look as though they'd be pretty hard to get into if you were really a beginner or intermediate R user looking for info ... Paul John's Rtips (http://www.ku.edu/~pauljohn/R/Rtips.html) is actually about the best example about there -- the flat hierarchy might not work too well for a really big wiki, but having at least a good first-level hierarchy set up (and making sure that what new users see is not a lot of detail about how to extend the wiki) seems really important. Sorry to criticize, but I am happy to start working on populating a wiki -- but only if the structure is there so that I can figure out where to put stuff and hope that someone who needs it will ever be able to find it ... -- 620B Bartram Hall [EMAIL PROTECTED] Zoology Department, University of Florida http://www.zoo.ufl.edu/bolker Box 118525 (ph) 352-392-5697 Gainesville, FL 32611-8525 (fax) 352-392-3704 ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
