Hi, I am writing this from Dortmund, at the useR! 2008 conference http://www.statistik.uni-dortmund.de/useR-2008/ I will have a talk tomorrow about the interaction between R and Fedora. It is a 15 minutes session so there is not much time to expand. I will present Fedora and it interacts with R. There are several issues that are common to the relation between Fedora and languages like perl, python, latex or R. I will also take the opportunity to hear feedback from several types of users regarding the state of R in Fedora. If there is anything relevant I will report back to this list. I have asked pingou (I hope I can use this) to write to the list with the new releases of his package as it would be nice that package automatically in Fedora using yum. Regards, PS: In case you are wondering why I took so long to send this message to the list, believe that it is a long story that involves time shortage. :-) -- José Abílio
