Would anyone be interested in forming an R discussion/study/support group?
I have quite modest R skills, but I would like spectacular R skills that are the toast of the town and the envy of all who see them. I suspect I’m not the only person on LW with this desire, so I thought I’d sound out interest in a group to help mutually achieve this.
What I see such a group doing:
Sharing interesting or instructional datasets
Suggesting interesting projects
Showing off awesome stuff you’ve done
Sharing and discussing relevant media, resources and online content
I’d be interested. More in awesome stuff than R itself. I’m currently at #22 out of 99 in a Kaggle contest and am doing it in R, but don’t really know what I’m doing. I do find that participating there is not a bad way to practice.
The Schizophrenia Classification Challenge. I haven’t done anything difficult, which is the biggest surprise; when I read the description I doubted I’d even be able to produce anything useful.

Anyone interested?
I am an active github R contributor and stackoverflow R contributor and I would be willing to coordinate. Send me an email: rkrzyz at gmail

Congrats! Which competition?
