I guess both team have a lot on their plate, and we would need more manpower, but understanding and collaborating with other project for the good of user is always something the Jupyter team is happy to do.</text></comment>

Just wondering what the advantages are.&lt;p&gt;Or do you just mean that R Notebooks are specifically better than the R support in Jupyter?</text></comment>
