Actually we can develop that as it will be useful for R2spec as well. It would
be interesting because the common problems are the same. :-)

It was a nice conference, with an optimum number of participants (around 400).
It was nice to meet there some people that I only knew from the mailing lists
like some of the Debian guys.
It was also interesting to notice that there are some issues related to the
community growth that are being dealt in the same way both in Fedora and R.
R-Forge for example is a project under the R Core umbrella where space and
infrastructural tools are given to authors to develop their packages before
they are place in CRAN. R-Forge is thus the analogue of fedorahosted. :-)
