Indeed, for completeness :

- The ESS website is at https://ess.r-project.org/

- There's an ESS dedicated mailing list "just parallel to" R-help:
  https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/ess-help

- We are currently beta testing a new release of ESS, "18.10",
  which *does* contain some project support.
  Prerelease tar/zip balls available from
  https://stat.ethz.ch/ESS/downloads/ess/Prerelease/
  
- ESS is developed on github now, and issues are tracked here:
  https://github.com/emacs-ess/ESS/issues/

Last but not least :
     Welcome to the world of Emacs and ESS !
