Hi Roger, I would be happy to support the R rgrass package. I’m the author of another “bridge” package (Rsagacmd) on CRAN, and I’ve contributed a few add-ons to GRASS, including the scikit-learn / raster add-on r.learn.ml2.
I've also been working on some R-GRASS integration but bringing in reticulate so that the pygrass interface can be used from R, with the aim of being able to use common generics (particularly ‘predict’) that can work directly with GRASS RasterRow objects etc. Irrespectively, happy to take a look at some of the open issues over the next few days.
