Here in Canada's capital we have set up the Ottawa-Gatineau R Users Group (OGRUG) and are wondering how we can get a special interest group (sig) mailing list established linked to the R-project site. We understand that there may be other RUGs out there, so maybe such a list should be something like R-rug-Ottawa, allowing for similar names for other lists around the world. This could help to advertise that there are users of R in different locations and bring folk into the community. We don't anticipate a lot of traffic, but want to allow people to add their names to receive announcements of meetings etc. We're looking at about four events a year, with some announcements of sister activities by local statistical or similar groups.

Essentially the query is "Who do I contact?" to set this up. We are, of course, happy to offer to administer such a RUG list, and hopefully help by being among the leading "rug-rats" with suggestions and documentation on ideas that have worked in getting our group going.

Cheers,

John Nash
