I have to say that the Task Views are a tad harder to find than I would have expected. Namely, if someone goes to the main page: http://www.r-project.org/ shouldn't there be a direct link to the Task Views page? Currently you have to go through CRAN, but I would not think of going to the CRAN link under the "Download" section, if what I was looking for was Task Views. Task Views have nothing to do with "Download", and from a new/potential user's perspective they have nothing to do with CRAN either. But perhaps I am missing something very obvious?
