Hi all, Just to pitch in on the R part, since that is my domain. Specifically for R a lot of code is shared through packages, either through CRAN, Bioconductor or sometimes githubs. Obviously, some people still keep code for themselves, but specifically R is doing a pretty good job at making code sharing easy.
One initiative that I am aware of is: http://software-carpentry.org/index.html Kind regards, Willem On Thu, Oct 30, 2014 at 7:08 AM, A.
