Having used ggplot2 for a few days now, I am impressed.  It is flexible, 
capable, and produces great statistical graphics.  Now that the Ggplot2 
book[1] is finally shipping, I predict that ggplot2 will rapidly become 
the tool of choice for most R users who need to produce statistical 
graphics.  (The book is great, BTW.)

It is good timing, then, that we are working to get ggplot2 into Fedora. 
  Pretty soon, most R users will expect it.

Cheers,
Tom
