I'm wondering if there's demand/interest in a cookbook-style site along the lines of ActiveState/O'Reilly's Perl and Python cookbook sites. (If you're not familiar with the cookbooks, they're databases of user-supplied "recipes" illustrating various programming tips and techniques.) The advantage of the cookbooks are that, since users supply the content, they take much of the demand off of the maintainer(s). I figure that a cookbook would probably be welcome (after all, who doesn't like more information?). So, I guess the real question is if there are enough people who would be willing to contribute recipes on an ongoing basis? The R community is certainly smaller than that of Perl or Python. Thoughts?
