rOpenSci’s package review system (akaonboarding) is one of our keyactivities to improve quality and sustainability of scientific Rpackages. Theeditorial team are constantly working towards improving the experiencefor both authors and reviewers. After our first year, we surveyedauthors andreviewers whoparticipated in our onboarding process to help us better understandwhat’s working well and where there is room for improvement.

We’ve got a big year ahead of us as we work towards expanding our team and organizing various events and activities. We remain committed to supporting and expanding the landscape of open source tools that are available to researchers. While much of our focus has been around making it easier to access various data repositories, we are keen on improving other parts of the research pipeline, including data munging, documentation and sharing.
