<p>I think there is a (small) risk issue here. </p>

<p>We want to bring the statistical community into StatExchange and things are still to be constructed. The R tag on SO shows that the computer science community already have riched a critical sized. </p>

<p>I have the feeling that allowing too many questions on computer science could create a flow of slight variantes of existing questions on SO such as "how do I accelerate this code"? "how do I store my data"?  I think these questions are very interesting for this site, but I think that now it could create the impression that modeling is marginal on this site. I'm very happy to see people that are so valuable comming from SO but I would suggest that they generate themselves an equilibrium between modelling and computing... </p>
