In a conversation with a programmer new to writing R packages, he mentioned that he was very confused by phrase "package writer" used in the document, and said that he "[was] literally imagining some sort of function that writes something related to packages".
I can see his point: not only is it confusing, but I think it's also bad English (one wouldn't say "the novel's writer"). Can this be changed to "package author"? Davor ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
