- Title: Create a native R package for accessing DataONE
- Short name: Data1R
- Organizers: Matt Jones

- Session ticket: #9
- Refactor the DataONE R package to natively implement access to the DataONE REST services API within the R language. The current implementation uses a Java bridge to execute the Java DataONE libclient library, which is not portable across platforms, and can be fragile to build and install on certain platforms. By refactoring, all R platforms will be supported through the use of the RCurl library. Initial design work and partial implementation on this has already been started.
- Refactor all current classes that use Java to instead use native R implementation
