I agree with the fact that R is increasingly popular at least in the
academic world where proprietary statistical software were dominant only a
few years ago.
Of course, even with R in ports, you still have a fair amount of
compilation to go through when installing external packages.

Suggestion for the 5.7 page

2015-03-14 Thread STeve Andre'

   It might be good to include R under the highlights section.  It's
growing in popularity; I know I've gotten questions about it being
in OpenBSD.

  It's really cool to show the ports tree now.  Most all the important
things are there now, at least for non-technical people.  R is a
useful addition to that, I think.
