As an end-user, I wonder about Revolution R. Is the relationship between Revolution R and the R community at-large a positive one? Do the former contribute to the development efforts of the latter? Is there a competitive aspect? is their forum competitive with r-help? any other thoughts? (most of all, I simply hope that they help some of the many helpful experts on this forum, who have volunteered their expertise to help me so many times.)
as for me, I discovered Revolution a few days ago. they did not have an OSX enterprise version, so I downloaded the community version. alas, after installation, starting up their GUI interface, I immediately get Error in library(Revobase) : there is no package called 'Revobase' I tried to sign up for their forum, but the forum email responder seems to be dead. (I sent them an email, but have not heard back yet.) someone else here tried out their enterprise version on a linux machine, but it had ugly problems in the creation of the top-level Makefile. so, my initial impression is not overwhelming. are they for real? regards, /iaw ---- Ivo Welch (ivo.we...@brown.edu, ivo.we...@gmail.com) ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
