[Rd] Suggestion to add crantastic to resources section on posting guide
Under the "further resources" section I'd like to suggest the following addition : * http://crantastic.org/ lists popular packages according to other users votes. Consider briefly reviewing the top 30 packages before posting to r-help since someone may have already released a package that solves your problem. Thats just a straw man idea so I hope there will be answer, or discussion, either way. Matthew

I don't think we should be expanding the posting guide. Its already so long that no one reads it. We should be thinking of ways to cut it down to a smaller size instead.
