[R] Getting your stuff organized in R

Dear list,

Here is a feedback on "Getting your stuff organized in R".
I find the paper generally useful.
However, I would not encourage anybody to use .RData for the storage
of data, objects and results, because .RData is overwritten so often that a
little carelessness may easily cause loss of important data (R started from
wrong directory etc.). It is better to choose clear project-related
filenames for save.image, if there is important stuff (if not, why 
save.image?).

Best,
Christian
