Firstly, it is necessary to make a solid and good foundation: and the more important is one fast and stable communication mechanism between the R ambient and others, under all OS. In my opinion Rcmdr, JGR, Rpad, SciViews-R, Tinn-R and others (all incomplete as a full R GUI) already pointed good directions, and all are working, isn't it. So, now, from the solid foundation (R GUI API), we could to initiate (or concentrate the efforts and resources) in a good project that join what can be congregated. For this, I believe, java must be considered.
