I'm working on a suite of R functions for remote dispatch of R batch jobs with a function-like syntax. The code assumes that the remote and local machines share directories using NFS (or similar) and have the same path to the working directory. Right now the code is complete and bug-free (ha! haha! hahaha...eugh) -- I'm just trying to sort out a problem with NFS client-side file caching on my specific system.

I'm also working on contract, writing C code for a Bayesian clinical trial design company in Texas. I actually want to get involved in the statistics, not just the coding, but I'll take what I can get. Hopefully it will be a foot in the door.
