I've been digging around in there but really have no idea how he found
the relevant data there.
I'd be quite interested in this, too, so if you find out anything please

I believe he looked inside tests/internet.Rout.save
This has

and gets updated at each release.

Re: [R] R Packages Crack the 3,000 Mark!
I thought that the unique function would eliminate duplicate package names. Is there a better way to count the number of packages?

Hi Liviu, Yes, I selected all the repositories on the list, including things like CRAN (extras), the four Bioconductor (BioC) sites, and R-Forge.

[R] R Packages Crack the 3,000 Mark!
Hi All, I don't know if this has been reported before, but according to Henrique Dallazuanna's program (below) the number of R packages has exceeded the 3,000 mark. The count today is 3,175. I ran this just a couple of months ago & the number was still in the high 2,000s, so it must be fairly recent. I think this represents about 50% growth in the last year. Not bad! Does anyone have a program that graphs the growth of R packages? I don't know if that historical data is around.
