Dear all
we are developing a R package and we would like to include as an
example published data that we have taken from a paper. Is this
allowed ? Where can I find the policy about distributing data through
the R Package
There are two answers to this. If you are intending to distribute your
package on CRAN, then the appropriate document is
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html
Relevant parts of it would likely be the rules about size and copyright
status, but there may be other parts too: read it over.
If you are not intending to distribute on CRAN, then you are pretty free
to do whatever you want, subject to the laws of your country. R has no
standing to control what you do with your own creation.
