Why "R Miss Tastic"

[njtierney]

The name "R-miss-tastic" was chosen for these features:

1. We are a community / collective of people who use R to work on miss
   ing data problems - and R is fantastic for working with missing data. We want to showcase that to everyone.
2. It sounds a little by like "armistice", a formal agreement to stop fighting - the idea being that we want to try and end the war on missing data, and bring peace to all - working with missing data should not be as difficult it is, and there should be nice resources, people, and software to work with missing data.
