[R] New R-SIG for Discrete Choice Modelling

[John Williams]

Hello all,

I'd like to announce the availability of a mailing list for a
newly-formed SIG (Special Interest Group) dedicated to using R for
Discrete Choice Modelling.

This list is intended for discussion of issues revolving around the
design and analysis of Discrete Choice (aka Stated Choice, Stated
Preference or Choice-Based Conjoint) experiments.

While R has good infrastructure for experimental design in the
traditional sense (i.e. generation and evaluation of fractional
factorials and balanced incomplete blocks) the use of packages can be
daunting for the novice. This list can be a source of help for applied
DC/SP/CBC researchers who may not necessarily be R experts.

If you'd like to join the SIG (or just subscribe to the list), please
visit this URI:

The SIG has not done anything apart from setting up this list (yet), and
at present consists of four people.  Check out the Web page to see more
detail on our views and aims, and jump in!
