Remove 08-making-packages-R & refer to external resource?

[katrinleinweber]

@diyadas and me had an idea, about which we'd like the CAC's opinion. Generally: Can we maintainers decide to remove an episode in favor of an external resource?

The handbook doesn't get this specific, so that lessons stay up-to-date could be interpreted as "remove old stuff", while cohesive seems to lean more to the opposite.

The specific case here is 08-making-packages-R:

1. If we implement #309, it needs to be updated at least minimally.
2. However, it could also be updated more extensively, like for example taking over much of FAIR-R/04-making-packages-R.
3. But in that 2nd case, why move content, when we could also refer to it?

Any advice is welcome! I for one am particularly biased, because I didn't write 08-making-packages-R but FAIR-R/04-making-packages-R. During August, I'll focus on getting the example 1. ready in #360.
