R Consortium September 2024 newsletter: share updates of your working group

[Crosita]

Hi @eliocamp and team,
I am Coline Zeballos, R Strategy Lead at Roche and member of the R Consortium's Marketing committee.
I am currently collecting working group updates for the RC's quarterly newsletter which will be published at the end of September 2024. Would you like to share a couple of updates for your WG? If so, please do so until Sept 16th. Thank you!
Coline, on behalf of the R Consortium Marketing Committee

Sure, what would you like to know?

Hi Elio, I return to you the question: please share a couple of sentences with updates of your WG. What happened in the last 3-4 months in your working group that you would like that I add to the next R Consortium newsletter? To be published at the end of September. Thanks!

Hi @eliocamp , I don't have any content from your working group to publish. Unless you share something by 4pm CEST in this issue, no updates will be published in the newsletter this quarter. Thanks

Hi, sorry for the delay.

We started as a WG on June this year. We had a virtual meeting to set the stage and we also talked in person during R Dev Day @ PLUS. I presented the project at useR! 2024. We have working package and ideas for improvement. There's a few PRs from collaborators under review and even an example of real world use of the package: a French translation of the torchvision documentation. We have this repository and a channel in the R Consortium Slack that anyone is welcome to join to participate.

Thanks!
