I have read[1] that r-cran-dplyr was rejected by ftpmaster with: Hi Chris, this package as the missing-R-data-description as well. Thorsten I assume that ftpmaster is refering to data/nasa.rda. I would happily help with finalising the package (and can confirm that I have successfully written). I have commited a file debian/README.source to my version of the packaging in Debian Med SVN[2] (which is ready for upload). Please let me know what way you would prefer: 1. You make your packaging available somehow and I migrate it to Debian Science Git. 2. I move my packaging from Debian Med SVN[2] to Debian Science Git and add you as Uploader. It would be simply great if you could confirm that it is OK for you if the ITP could be closed by the Debian Science team (alternatively the Debian Med team). I'd simply interested to push the package as quickly as possible and thus I would like to help as best as possible - if you confirm also by simply uploading what I have prepared in SVN. Kind regards Andreas.
