Hi Wensei.


Why not do as I do?  Find an interesting area of numerical
computation (perhaps not statistical) that has not been
implemented in open-source.  Then write an R package
for it, under GPL-2, then write an article about the new
package in  R-news or JSS.

works for me.


Best wishes


Robin
