Hello, is there an up-to-date reference for how many people use R? I'm giving an R demo and want to cite wonderful R usage stats. How many people use it (or download it)? How often is R used in peer-reviewed pubs, etc. Is there any whiz-bang citation that says something like "R is great and developed by the best minds in statistical computing." Any thoughts? -Andy
