Hello, All: Might you have time to review the article I recently posted to Wikiversity on "Searching R Packages" (https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Searching_R_Packages)? Please edit this yourself or propose changes in the associated "Discuss" page or in an email to this list or to me. My goal in this is to invite readers to turn that article into a proposal for improving the search capabilities in R that would ultimately be funded by, e.g., The R Foundation. What do you think? Please forward this to anyone you think might be interested. Thanks for your contributions to improving the lot of humanity through better statistical software. ????? Best Wishes, ?????

Hi Spencer,
Thank you for this wonderful service to the R community.
A suggestion: it would be great to discuss how to search github and
Bioconductor repositories.
Thanks,
Ravi

Dear Spencer, Nice initiative! I discover a lot of packages not by explicit search, but by running into them. I find cranberries really helpful there, especially the twitter feed (@CRANberries) and also r-bloggers, especially through Joseph Rickert's monthly roundup of new packages. And then of course there is the R journal and JSS, but those speak for themselves. So maybe a 'keeping up to date' section would be nice in the article?
