Welcome to the OOP-WG wiki!

This is the collaboration space for Object-oriented Programming Working Group, which is developing a specification for a unified object-oriented programming system in R. The working group is sponsored by the R Consortium and its members include representatives from R Core, the Tidyverse, R-Ladies, ROpenSci and the R Consortium. We have included both technical and community leaders, because we recognize that the new system will only succeed if it is both technically sound and widely adopted.

Currently we are working on the requirements for the new system, based on our problem statement.

Objectives

  • Release a finalized design specification for a unifying object-oriented programming system,
  • Recommend to the ISC a strategy for implementing and maintaining the system, as well as driving its adoption.

Milestones

  • Finalize membership,
  • Agree upon and prioritize system requirements,
  • Iterate through design proposals,
  • Release a proposal for community review and contribution,
  • Incorporate community contributions,
  • Submit the finalized proposal,
  • Develop and submit the implementation and adoption strategy.
