Hey all, This isn't directly WP-related, except in the sense that it relates to a toolset I think a lot of researchers in HCI tend to use (heck, a lot of researchers, full stop)
As any of you who've had the misfortune to spend more than 5 minutes talking to me in the last few years will know, I'm kind of fanatical about the R programming language. It's commonly used within statistical analysis and even Python users wander over to R land for graphing ;). While the Python Software Foundation has an anti-harassment policy for conferences they run or sponsor, the R Foundation does not - and so we've started an open letter asking for one to be instituted. The letter lives at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1C1oPhup72lPHJXbpyJZNIo1BdCzfxZ_VoiWJWzmufjU/edit If you're an R programmer or someone with an interest in that field, and you're interested in signing, simply: 1. Put your name in as a suggested edit, in the format existing signers are using; 2. Email me so I can confirm that the person signing as Foo Bar is genuinely Foo Bar; 3. Done! Many thanks, -- Oliver Keyes Research Analyst Wikimedia Foundation _______________________________________________ Wiki-research-l mailing list Wiki-research-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wiki-research-l
