Also, let me remind you and others that R News is also peer reviewed
(although not yet indexed).
It specifically includes solicits short to medium length articles of the
following kinds
* Changes in R: new features of the latest release
* Changes on CRAN: new add-on packages, manuals, binary
distributions, mirrors,...
* Add-on packages: short introductions to or reviews of R extension
packages
* Programmer's Niche: nifty hints for programming in R (or S)
* Hints for newcomers: Explaining sides of R that might not be so
obvious from reading the manuals and FAQs.
* Applications: Examples of analyzing data with R
Lengthier papers are probably better placed in the JSS, JCGS
(J.Computational and Graphical Statistics), or CSDA (Computational
Statistics and Data Analysis), depending on contents. For in-depth
descriptions of packages, JSS has become quite popular in recent years
