This package (https://github.com/robjhyndman/ozbabynames) was intended to be an Australian version of the US babynames package (https://cran.r-project.org/package=babynames). It has not been updated since it was created in November 2018 (at a previous hackathon).

It would be good to:

  • add more data if it is available;
  • create a pkgdown site for the package;
  • perhaps, put it on CRAN.

Interested in this one! I have fond memories of writing code to scrape the PDFs 😅

The nzbabynames package needs updating too, although the available of data is super accessible anyway straight from data.govt.nz. But could be nice to do some examples that compare NZ and OZ 😀
