R has spread far and wide with great success. It is not only used extensively in universities, but also apparently in governmental organisations and in industry. As the recent discussion of R's Pros and Cons shows, there are many reasons for this. It would be interesting to know just how widely R is used, where it is used most (and where least or not at all). Does anyone have a good overview?

Does anyone have a good overview?I don't really have a good overview, but the following page might give some indication where people are using R: r-project.org/foundation/memberlist.html Hope this helps a bit, Roland
