I had mentioned this some time ago but another possibility would be to turn the whole help system into a wiki or have a link from each help page to a supplementary wiki page that users could add additional comments to. This would not require any coordination and could harness the growing R community making it easy for more people to contribute. There is already an unused wiki at: http://fawn.unibw-hamburg.de/cgi-bin/Rwiki.pl?RwikiHome but having the links might provide a more structured approach and further encouragement to use the wiki. ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
