Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : r-cran-httpuv Version : 1.3.3 Upstream Author : Joe Cheng <joe /a/ rstudio . com> * URL : https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/httpuv/ * License : GPL, BSD, the ISC license, Two clause BSD license Programming Lang: C, R Description : GNU R package of HTTP and WebSocket Server Library The R package httpuv provides low-level socket and protocol support for handling HTTP and WebSocket requests directly from within R. It is primarily intended as a building block for other packages, rather than making it particularly easy to create complete web applications using httpuv alone. httpuv is built on top of the libuv and http-parser C libraries, both of which were developed by Joyent, Inc. The R httpuv package ( https://github.com/rstudio/httpuv ) is needed for RStudio's Shiny Server ( https://www.rstudio.com/products/shiny/shiny-server/ ), which is licensed under the AGPLv3; see also https://github.com/rstudio/shiny-server . We plan to run Shiny Server at Tilburg University. I'm working on the httpuv packaging using debian-science's git at Alioth, at http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=debian-science/packages/r-cran-httpuv.git / git://anonscm.debian.org/debian-science/packages/r-cran-httpuv.git .

Bye, Joost -- Syndicalism objects to a large union treasury [...] If the labor movement in this country were not backed by such large funds, it would not be as conservative as it is, nor would the leaders be so readily corrupted. [...] Large treasuries [...] create class distinctions and jealousies within the ranks of labor, so detrimental to the spirit of solidarity. The worker whose organization has a large purse considers himself superior to his poorer brother [...] -- Emma Goldman, Syndicalism: the modern menace to capitalism, 1913
