The biggest problem R faces is the corrosive attitude the language developers and maintainers have towards the R community. The R core team sometimes seems openly hostile to users; instead of Benevolent-Dictator-for-Life, it's more of a military junta that suppresses the opposition.

Where is this "R community" hiding? The IRC channel is essentially dead.

You'll find the most active public R communities at stackoverflow and on the R-help mailing list.
