@ucfagls It is a custom Ruby-on-Rails thingy, and pretty nice to use. Don't know if you can "factor out" JSS bits to make it generic though.

@ucfagls Though as an editor, I still manage my manuscripts, reviews and reviewers the old-fashioned way. But JSS HQ @ UCLA has software.
Replying to @ucfagls
@ucfagls You could talk to the JSS which wrote its own software (atop of RoR) to manage the journal -- all open source all the time.

@hadleywickham @geoffjentry well .rData would be camelCase but I can live happily everafter with a capital R
Replying to @hadleywickham
@hadleywickham @geoffjentry Just lost a bet with myself as I was expecting ._r_d_a or ._r_d_s. Maybe there is hope after all.

@geoffjentry If in doubt, RTFW and Section 1.1.5 of 'R Exts' suggests to pick ... either one. My preference is .RData.

@joshua_ulrich With a new version of the FusionForge software, it seems. Webpages look a little fresher.

@geoffjentry Worst thing about 'curve(x, ...)' is the R CMD check warning 'no global binding for x'. Arggghhh.

Oh dear, now 4:0 for the US with Alex Morgan's second goal. #soccer
Replying to @kjhealy
@kjhealy Oh well, off-by-one error :)

@kjhealy Context was the van driver who was always under a rain cloud and hence developed a similar vocabulary for rain.
Yikes. Another one by Wambach and its 3:0 and we're only 28 mins in. #soccer
Uh-oh. 2:0 for the US with a nice Wambach header. BC Place more quiet.
Ouch. US scores on Canada in the fifth minute :-/

Plus holograms of Weber + Habermas MT @kjhealy Chinese character for the concept is a combination of the characters for "Word" and "German".

@kjhealy "Eskimos have more than forty words for it." : There are few things I love more than that passage in Dirk Gently's H. D. A.
Replying to @chl
@chl Well I was playing with the anglo 'word' and that's the joke as there ain't no such thing in the more-square-than-hip German
