I would like to keep them in the package itself. Right now I am storing them

PKG/data/dataseton.RData, and then adding those R files to .Rbuildignore.

For gunsales we keep it simple:
https://github.com/NYTimes/gunsales/blob/master/R/data.R
It is both a convenience for us (when more data gets released) and
documentation for the user.
