R jargon

The document 'Some hints for the R beginner'
is gradually becoming more complete and gradually
gaining momentum in terms of hits.

One of the more popular sub-pages is the jaRgon
page even though there is hardly anything on it.

I think the R-wiki is the place that such a list
should live.  My vision is that for each word
there be a brief definition and then a link to a
wiki page for the word.  A number of definitions
would be on the same page.

I think this could be the application that finally
gives the R-wiki the boost that it needs to fulfill
its promise.  The people learning R from the 'hints'
document would come to think of the R-wiki as a
natural place to look for information.

The steps to do this are to create the structure
within the wiki for it, and then to populate the
definitions.  The glossary from S Poetry should be
a good starting point.  I'm also happy to donate
the jaRgon pun.
