Google Alerts are great, but unfortuantly the brevity of R's name is
the main problem i think.

though, thinking about it, i suppose if one could work out the 'best'
key words to use, it might be possible to not get too many miss-
classified results, e.g.,

http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&nolr=1&q=r+open+source+programming+language&btnG=Search

or something like that. Will be keeping an eye on David's page from
time to time though, just in case he catches anything :-)

lovely to see R getting the attention it so rightly deserves.
