   > Is there anything in 
[ARROW-11120](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-11120) that is useful 
here?
   
   I think that in the python2r case it would be useful to extend `pyarrow` to 
have a `pyarrow.rpy2` module like we have the `pyarrow.jvm` one. So that we can 
provide an higher level API on top of the C Data interface. That's in practice 
what it's done by https://github.com/rpy2/rpy2-arrow
   
   My goal was mostly to show now to do the work using what Arrow provides 
natively at the moment and make clear how you can use the C Data interface. We 
should definitely grow an additional section in that doc page once there is a 
higher level API available. From what I can see providing conversion tools for 
`rpy2.robjects.conversion` wouldn't be too hard.
