Not on this list, recently, but internally in R Core. Nothing that needs to be secret, I think. Latest explorations (following preliminary discussions at useR) have been in the direction of moving stuff onto R-forge.r-project.org and its Gforge tracker tool. I don't see us considering a non-OpenSource option. In general, the thing to look for is maintainability more than capablility, at least in my opinion, and R-forge has the advantage that it is preexisting and supported infrastructure. One major disadvantage is that we'd lose the possibility of integrating r-devel discussions with bug reports -- we can echo repository changes to the list, but feeding followups back in requires manual intervention or that we tell people not to reply but to go to the repository if they have anything to add. On the other hand, that seems to be what "everyone else" is doing these days. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Øster Farimagsgade 5, Entr.B c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics PO Box 2099, 1014 Cph.
