Perhaps this has been asked and settled before, but while such courses certainly might be of interest to those who read this list, they are for profit, and therefore advertising them here does seem somewhat inappropriate.

True, but if I may put in my two pennies worth, for novices like me it is useful to know about these things. -----Original Message----- From: Bert Gunter <bgunter.4567 at gmail.com> To: Highland Statistics Ltd <highstat at highstat.com> CC: R-help <r-help at r-project.org> Sent: Wed, 15 Mar 2017 14:59 Subject: Re: [R] Crete stats course Perhaps this has been asked and settled before, but while such courses certainly might be of interest to those who read this list, they are for profit, and therefore advertising them here does seem somewhat inappropriate.

There is nowhere a statement on the general guidelines that state that you cannot make an announcement for a course (which by the way, introduces R to people who never have used R before)....be it for profit or not. And even if it would have such a statement, I don't think that a 'once per quarter' email about an R course does much harm. Apologies to everyone else for filling up your mailbox. Bert....if you would like to discuss this further then please email me directly and I will send a summary to the list later.

Just slap me > down if I am wrong about this.I have a *vague* recollection that it *has* been asked before and that there was a consensus, or a pronouncement from R core (or a combination of the two; or something like that) that such announcements were OK as long as they were reasonably brief and not overly frequent. Or something like that. It seems to me that the Highland Statistics ads fall within these vaguely remembered guidelines. cheers, Rolf -- Technical Editor ANZJS Department of Statistics University of Auckland Phone: +64-9-373-7599 ext. 88276
