Hi Jon. I’d be really happy to take a look at this with you, but it’ll need to wait until after the holidays. I don’t know what constitutes a non-API entry point, but feel like I should, so would be glad to learn with you, and may be able to offer some pointers (no pun intended) as we figure it out.

We will indeed be working on enhancements to the discussion process.

We’ll review processes from other projects, e.g., Python Enhancement Proposals, Rust’s Request for Comments, and propose and pilot a process for R.

Ooh, I’ve had this issue too, with my personal website, which is deployed with netlify, and it never even occurred to me there was a solution to it, other than a note in the GitHub repo telling people what they need to change!

R Dev Days (for base R contribution) are a lot of fun and hugely productive! We just had one in Warwick with a fantastic group of both new and experienced contributors, including this wonderful group of @rladies.org.
