Dear All,

Just wondering: Is there any official policy on announcing R-related courses 
and books on r-help?

I didn't find anything on this in the posting guide, but 
http://www.r-project.org/mail.html#instructions says that r-help is, among 
other things, for "announcements (not covered by 'R-announce' or 'R-packages', 
see above)". That sounds a bit like this would cover courses and books, but I 
am not sure. Obviously, R-announce is not meant for that, as it is "for major 
announcements about the development of R and the availability of new code" and 
is to be used "for announcements mainly by the R Core Development Team".

I see the occasional course/book announcement, but it seems to me that there 
are a lot more courses and books out there compared to how many announcements 
there are related to them on this mailing list. So, I am wondering if such 
announcements are somewhat implicitly discouraged.

Best,
Wolfgang
