Thank you very much for your feedback either through r-help list or direct contact. It seemed that "Rinfo" could be a good alternative the package name.
Based on the feedback I got, I have made the following changes: (1) A user can now use the functions download, rate, comment, like without time lag. (2) The maintainers of R packages can elect not to receive feedback through email. (3) A bug was fixed. (4) Several errors in the help doc were corrected. (http://rstats.psychstat.org/rstats.pdf) If you have installed the package, there is no need to reinstall it unless you want to update the help doc. Note that you can provide feedback directly within R on the package using comment('blabla...', package='rstats') To ask a question, use ask('blabla..', package='rstats', email='xxx@xxx', name='xxx') Any comments and suggestions are welcome. ________________________________ From: Liviu Andronic <landronim...@gmail.com> Cc: Michael Weylandt <michael.weyla...@gmail.com>; "r-help@r-project.org" <r-help@r-project.org> Sent: Thursday, May 30, 2013 10:34 AM Subject: Re: [R] More discussion on R usage statistics > I'd be very happy to change its name and welcome any input on another name. > Zhiyong > collect_rstats or RCollectStats or a variation thereof would do just fine.
