[R] Where would i put feature requests for a library?
Hi! If i found a problem with the code of one of the libraries (not core), or, in my current case, would wish something minor changed for convenience, where can i get contact? Can i put it in the "official" bug repository? (Problem discription for anyone interested: Why call the default function kpca for a matrix with kpar=list(sigma=0.2), instead of putting this default sigma into the rbfkernel and using kpar=list()? Anytime i call kpca with a kernel without sigma, i have to supply kpar=list() or get an error. )

The first step should be to contact the _package_ maintainer: use the maintainer() function to get a contact email.

If you just want to know who is currently responsible for the package, you can use library(help="foo") Duncan Murdoch
