Fellow Railers, May I throw out an idea for plugins? Let''s begin to put sample applications together for our plugins as a standard practice. This would be beneficial for a number of reasons: 1. Nothing teaches better than a real world example. 2. A working application leaves little room for excuses in not being able to get a plugin working. 3. Apps can help demonstrate best practices

In order to ease my students into the R environment I am developing a package which installs a variety of utility functions as well as slightly modified versions of some standard R functions -- e.g. mean, hist, barplot, ....

I''ve been contemplating the utilization of "tags" functionality for categorizing records in my application. For example, a record can have any tag associated with them: volunteer, donor, phone_caller, etc. (Much like delicious) Has anyone already laid out a good architecture for implementing this on the DB, or other medium? I''m sure I can custom build something, but

>From the newbie corner... In the demo video our illustrious Rails guru summons textmate with "e ." from the command line, magically opening textmate within the context of the respective rails app. I downloaded textmate, love it, but want to know how to make the same magic happen from the command line, rather than having to open the app via gui in the Applications folder.

I will have a blind student in my AP Statistics class this year. I'm thinking about using R as his calculator. It seems like it's core text-in text-out nature may match screen reading software well.
