 I don't feel comfortable asking questions about the design of new a
 new grid class in R-help where I'm guessing most people won't be
 interested. Of course having yet another mailing list would only make
 sense if it's to be followed by those people who work with Grid
 (lattice, vcd, ggplot2, latticeExtra, Rgraphics, etc.). Having read a
 bit of code from these packages recently, I get the feeling that
 several people may have been facing similar problems or reinventing
 the same things.

I figured that a good share of the traffic on r-help might be
considered "graphics"-related, while I was aiming at discussing less
documented areas. But I agree that the distinction shouldn't be made
on a particular package or system.



I'm not wildly keen on a SIG (it could only mean fewer eyes seeing the 
discussion).  I think r-devel should serve quite well for these 
discussions, at least until people start complaining that it is being 
overrun with graphics questions ...

I figured that a good share of the traffic on r-help might be
considered "graphics"-related, while I was aiming at discussing less
documented areas. But I agree that the distinction shouldn't be made
on a particular package or system.

That sounds more like an R-devel question.
