I wrote a package which includes a number of genome sequencing project statistics on the web like http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genomes/lproks.cgi. I included some generic functions to summarize, plot, and update the tables with the most recent version
data(lproks) update(lproks) [1] "lproks successfully updated, 7 new genomes added" I usually save the dataset back to my package data directory... save(lproks, file="/path/to/genomes/data/lproks.rda") but I may one day put the package on CRAN (or BioConductor), so now I need to know where the package/data directory is located, if the user has permission to save to that directory, and probably some other complications I'm missing. Any suggestions?
