Dear FTP team,
I would like to know your conclusion on *Rdata files. They are example data
files for the documentation and the regression tests. Many r-cran-* packages
contain them. My personal opinion is that since they can be read, written,
modified, and exported with R, they are a ‘preferential form’ for modification.
I am currently holding my work on the r-cran-* packages I co-maintain until I
get your answer.
Have a nice day,
