Then can you stop using the word "release". To release means to let something go, preferably out into the wild. I can't even find a binary "release" on that site. Call it the first "version" if you want, but not "release". I'm sure I'm not the only one wondering where this "release" is downloadable in some form. > For the moment, this project is not open > source, it has costs a lot of effort, and first of all, I have to find a way > to recover the investment.

You say the "Open Spartacus" project [http://www.openspartacus.org/] from which VulcanDB came failed "Due to the lack of funding". What was your personal relationship with that project? In what way, apart from in name, was that "Open"? I can't find source code or binary releases. Just a fancy single-page website with *all* the buzzwords. Does this failure not teach you anything? The R project and its leading lights are very proud of the open nature of R, and so you will be talking to strong proponents of open source software here. You've presented a project with no source or binary release, no documentation, no API or specification, nothing. No more than vapourware ever gives us. And then.... > Please, you can check the benchmark of the first release.

We have no idea exactly what you tested, and benchmark comparisons *depend* on that. > Of course, I would like this project to be open source, but if has to find > "the way", and ideas are welcome! Release early, release often. The only way other R users are going to be interested is to see the source, or at the very least to see the proposed API and be able to discuss this. I think you will find few friends here until you do. Otherwise I suggest you jazz up your benchmarks into a pseudo-technical paper with some 3d bar graphs and wave it under the noses of idiot venture capitalists until one of them throws some money at you. Good luck! Barry ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
