[R-gui] Spending less time on R-GUIs now

2 messages · James Wettenhall, Philippe GROSJEAN

Hi,

I was pleased to learn that my R-Tcl/Tk GUI projects - limmaGUI and
affylmGUI - are considered (by my boss) to be worth continuing after I
move from being a software developer to doing a PhD in bioinformatics
(still in the same office).   Someone in my lab has agreed to take over
these projects, but he is still in the learning stage.  So I will be
spending less time on R-GUI things than I used to, but I'm still very
interested in hearing about progress in the R-GUI community.  If anyone
finds a webpage (or anything else) I created (e.g. related to R-Tcl/Tk or
R-wxPython) which is terribly out-of-date and wants to take over
responsibility for it, just drop me an email.  Thanks for all the helpful
interactions on this list (and R-help) in the past.

Best wishes,
James

Hello James,

I hope you have good luck with your PhD work. I would be happy to 
continue the developement of the R-Tcl/Tk page. There are certainly many 
other people that can contribute to this page, like Peter Dalgaard 
(obviously!), and John Fox, which has a long experience with R 
commander, Duncan Murdoch, ... My idea is to convert it into a Mambo web 
site, where various "developers" could edit or add pages individually to 
the same site.

As you know, I am definitely in favor of your R-wxPython approach, but 
there, I have no time, neither competences. However, if the job is done 
for Tcl/tK, it would be straightforward to add the R-wxPython + Boa 
constructor, etc... pages to it.

Best,

Philippe
