[R] R Mailing list in Cape Town - South Africa

[Rainer M. Krug]

Hi

I hope that I don't break any rules -

I just want to announce that we started a mailing list for R in Cape 
Town. The address is:

https://cbio.uct.ac.za/mailman/listinfo/sabior

The basic idea of the mailing list is to bring R users in the region 
around Cape Town and in South Africa closer together and probably 
arrange informal gettogethers.

We also try to provide a forum to discuss issues concerning R in Biology 
and distribute announcements of R courses and similar events in the Cape 
Town area.

We definitely do not want to establish an alternative forum to the 
official R lists and do not want to draw subscribers away from them - it 
is a huge advantage that one large list provides the main forum to get help.

I hope that the new mailing list will be a useful medium to spread the 
word and information about R in South Africa,

Rainer
