This package mainly contains some larger data sets originally
distributed with the VGAM package.
Ideally both packages can be installed and loaded to be fully functional.
The main intent was to limit the size of VGAM to a bare essential.
Many data sets in my monograph will refer to data sets in either
package.
Recently, some older or less-used VGAM family functions have
been shifted into VGAMdata, and this is likely to
continue in the future.
