The image captures a vibrant poster session at the useR! R Conference, held in Salzburg in July 2024. The setting is a spacious conference hall with attendees engaging in discussions around research posters mounted on large display boards. Participants, a mix of data scientists, researchers, and R enthusiasts, are seen standing in small groups, gesturing towards the posters, and exchanging insights. Some individuals are holding conference materials or notebooks, while others are listening attentively to presenters explaining their work. The posters feature graphs, charts, and R code snippets, reflecting cutting-edge developments in R programming for statistical analysis and data science. The atmosphere is collaborative and professional, with attendees dressed in business casual attire. In the background, additional posters and conference branding related to R programming and statistical computing reinforce the theme of the event. The lighting in the room is bright, enhancing visibility and interaction.

It is possible to present online at #useR2025!! This time, it could talk about CRAN help pages, packages dependencies (and aproximating historical snapshots since 1997), archiving packages (and resubmission to CRAN) or about Bioconductor and its relationship with CRAN. I'm not sure yet which topic would be more interesting for the audience. Let me know if you prefer any of them #Rstats.
