He's still in the UK. He was kind enough to invite me to meet with him after the sprint. Last Sunday I met him at the University of Warwick, and we had several hours getting to know each other better, and discussing matters such as:<br></div><div><ul><li>The importance of community</li><li>The R Journal moving to HTML</li><li>Creating HTML from the LaTeX source for R documentation</li><li>The arXiv accessibility initiative</li><li>For R, a browser-based REPL (read print eval loop)</li></ul><div>At Thursday's TeX Hour Jonathan G and I will review and continue our conversation, and you are invited to listen and also join in if you wish. I'm looking forward to this.</div><div><br></div><div>In case you didn't know, Jonathan G is a blind senior lecturer in Statistics at Massey University, New Zealand.
