You are all invited to rewrite it in any way you think is more likely to produce the most useful result.? Wikimedia invites contributors to

Hi Spencer, Thank you for this wonderful service to the R community. A suggestion: it would be great to discuss how to search github and Bioconductor repositories.

Dear Spencer, Nice initiative! I discover a lot of packages not by explicit search, but by running into them.

????? I concur with Moshe.? David and his team have done great thing for R, but a lion will not become a vegetarian.? I think that any reasonable reading of Microsoft's history will supports that perspective.? However, this is a fairly well documented phenomenon far beyond Microsoft.? Jean Tirole won the 2014 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics for establishing that, especially regarding

Hello, All: What facilities exist for plots and tables of data in the standard MediaWiki software beyond the obvious standards? The standard MediaWiki tables and graphics capabilities seem to me to be rather clumsy, and I wonder if I'm missing some available extensions? The standard MediaWiki tables are described in a Wikipedia article on "Help:Table".

Ruby on Rails Workshop ------------------------------------ Kansas City Ruby User''s Group (http://kcrug.org/) proudly presents the first "Ruby on Rails Workshop" for those eager to get started into Ruby on Rails. This one-and-half-day workshop will offer a quick introduction to Ruby and the Ruby on Rails web application framework. Sponsored by Reevik, Inc., it will

I think that even though some Microsoft employees may have good intentions Microsoft as a company can not be trusted. There will be always a danger that they will try to create their own version of R which works only on Windows and that will become increasingly divergent from "other" R. We witnessed such (cursed in my opinion) attempts with their treatment of Java and Internet Explorer.

Hello, An old theme just came up on the Wikipedia mailing list again : Wikipedia strongly encourages[1] using theora encoding, strongly enough that I don't think we currently host any other video encodings...[2] however, most users know how to make and edit and play mpegs, and find theora hard to work with. http://mail.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikipedia-l/2005-March/038244.html Perhaps the

I take Duncan's point but would second the motion to have WRE clarify how static vignettes are supposed to work; it's a topic I am repeatedly confused about despite being an experienced package maintainer.

Also, the OLPC project is considering using content from WikiMedia, and video files at WikiMedia are stored in ogg theora format. Have folks involved in the OLPC project

Hi, three years ago Cortado found its new home xiph.org (as per http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/theora/2009-October/002976.html ). However there are still 13 open bug reports in Wikimedia Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&resolution=---&product=Cortado Would you like me to upstream these tickets to

I'm working with Wikipedia projects, and have several thousand small sound files to convert from .ra to .ogg Vorbis. (The wikimedia commons accepts *only* Vorbis sound files, iirc, and the Wikimedia Foundation strongly supports the open standards.) The problem is, I cannot find a conversion utility for total newbs on OSX. Probably I just don't know where to look. Can someone suggest a
