I never got a reply to this email.
I hoped that my answer at
http://lists.debian.org/debian-med/2013/08/msg00011.html
would have clarified that you could perfectly follow Debian Med
policy to add the R packages in question. Charles also hat
answered here:

I hope that my document about *.rda packages here
https://wiki.debian.org/GNU_R
might cause some twist in ftpmasters mind. I recently had uploaded
r-bioc-graph which also included *.rda files but it was rejected for a
different reason because some copyright statement was missing.
My specific question is:
I'm using the following R packages, which are not currently in
Debian, as described in the email below.
yaml
gridExtra
RPostgreSQL
tikzDevice
RJSONIO
If I want to get them into Debian via debian-med, what should I do?
Just follow Debian Med policy as suggested previously and make sure you
are checking out the various other examples of R packages we just have
in VCS.
Would putting the packaging into some debian-med repository be a
good start? Thanks,
Yes, please do. This would be very welcome.
