 organization or the world.

 Shiny Server lets you go beyond static charts, and lets you manipulate
 the data. Users can sort, filter, or change assumptions in real-time.
 Shiny server empower your users to customize your analysis for their
 specific needs and extract more insight from the data.

Collaborative efforts to package shiny-server are ongoing in Debian Med
Team. I have noticed there is no ITP/RFP for it, hence I am opening one.
The packaging process right now is in the dependency packaging stage.
