> The R language was designed to perform "Columnar in memory analytics". R / Arrow bindings would be useful for:
> * better compatibility between R and other languages / big data systems
> * chunk-based data parallelism
> * portable and efficient IO via Parquet
> R has a C++ interface so the natural way to write these bindings is to leverage Arrow's C++ library as much as possible.
> Feather provides a starting point: [https://github.com/wesm/feather/tree/master/R].
> This can serve as an umbrella JIRA for work on R related tasks.
