hi all, We've made pretty amazing progress on the R library in the last 2 months (kudos to Romain and Javier)! I made a pass through that initial document I drafted and opened JIRA issues for anything that seemed well-scoped that isn't done yet. Others are free to double check my work and open any issues for work you want to see happen
There's 37 issues open on https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ARROW/R+JIRA+Dashboard There's still a lot of work ahead of us (not the least figuring out how to package / enable R users to install this software on all platforms), but we are on our way! thanks Wes On Thu, Sep 6, 2018 at 6:49 PM Wes McKinney <wesmck...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I'm going to transfer the document over to Confluence soon and start > creating JIRA issues.
