Is there any chance of a CVS repository for public but not necessarily 
CRAN-quality R Code? Or better still, a sourceforge-type site (ForgeRy?)
based on GForge with all the goodies that such sites have for 
cooperative development (forums, task management, bug tracking etc). I 
already have a couple of projects on sourceforge but I think its a bit 
daunting for new people. Perhaps an R-specific forge site would be more 
welcoming?

  Or even better better still, an entire web-based R community site, 
with discussions and news and code snippets and words of wisdom 
something like www.perlmonks.org?

  I'll be at DSC2003 if anyone wants to beat me senseless with a tree 
for suggesting this.
