[R] what happened to inside-r? [possibly OT]

"When giants move, they don't move lightly"

Presumably, Revolution's portfolio of web-domains got assimilated and redirected to the corporate homepage. There are valid concerns that might explain such a move. You might as some of the Revolution/Microsoft about the possibility of a resurrection (or, perhaps, whether the same information is now available at a different location).

Took me to what I needed without any fuss. Now that URL redirects to the "Microsoft R Application Network"?  Looks to be something related to Revolution R.  What happened?
