Well I have been told, I am on the SAS-L rookie of the year list at http://www.listserv.uga.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A1=ind0901b&L=sas-l#29.
With 351 posts in 2008 and 0 in 2007, you can certainly say I have been an active rocky, I mean rookie on the list.
Some the things I did were-
- Share experiences with SAS language code including Automation
- Share and ask on non –SAS software areas like Google Docs, Cloud Computing ,WPS comparisons.
- Provoke by design and mostly by accident discussion on R , SAS Software Pricing, relationship and dependence between SAS Community .Org and the SAS Institute and diversity and international issues on the list.
I believe SAS is a good software and the SAS institute has been a pioneer, and it needs to listen to feedback from its retail customers just as much it needs to make money.
- A more transparent way of announcing strategic intent on where they are going to concentrate research and
- maybe a more nuanced public relationship stance on rival softwares , with
- a readiness to once again experiment if not embrace open source contributions (particularly by using some interface to R code, as well as R datasets) could lead to great stuff from SAS Institute again.
p.s. I Don’t expect to win though. I am bad at elections.
