I saw the vctrs package repo the other day on your GitHub. What's your plan with that? I guess your covering all of R's base data types (dplyr:data frames, purrr:lists, forcats:factors, vctrs:vectors)? Also do you plan on developing further functional programming packages?

Yes. You can read the issues for what the package will start with.

No plans for more FP packages in the near future, although I do want to add multicore and progress bars to purrr.
