~  There is already an r-sig-phylo at r-project.org for
phylogenetics/comparative analysis (fairly active,
including big guns like Ted Garland and Joe
Felsenstein (!))

| Excellent! And while we're broadening out, perhaps we can include

| least are closely interwoven with it:
|
| Evolution: for example, phylogenetics and comparative analyses
|
| Behaviour: for example, the analysis of behavioural transition
| matrices or the analysis of social network dynamics
|
| Many thanks to Jeff and Sarah for starting this SIG!

| Best wishes,
