[R-pkg-devel] no visible global function definition

[Jonathan Callahan]

Dan,

I find it useful to reference external functions as package::function()
throughout all of our R code. This eliminates the need to import namespaces
although you still need to to specify the package in the DESCRIPTION file
"Imports:" section.

Best,

Jon
