Yes, I'm a beginner in julia, (but an expert in R),
and have been trying things in julia, on and off, for more than a year..
Today I updated my julia (see versioninfo below), and also wanted to
update my (Statistics related) packages.
There was an issue that Pkg.add("RDatasets") did not work {package not
available}, and the same for "GLM",
but finally Pkg.add("Dataframes") cloned and installed everything
{ok, the above was the first "bug report" ...}.
The main issue of this posting does look a bit more fundamental though:
julia> whos(Base)
! Function
!= Function
!== Function
$ Function
% Function

Please tell me if this is the wrong place to "post" or maybe how I could
have quickly searched all issues to see if this was already reported.
