Right. Time for me to update to R-3.5.2 to comply with the policy and
prevent other silly mistakes.

Ouch! My reading comprehension could have been better when I read that
part of help("person"). Indeed, I should have used "ctb" instead of
"con".
Additional thanks to Peter Dalgaard for spotting the same mistake and
to Dirk Eddelbuettel for the link to Debian packages of current release
of R.

Re: [R-pkg-devel] Win-builder: Author field differs from that derived from Authors@R
The DESCRIPTION's Author field is auto-generated from Authors@R during R
CMD build. You are right, the format has slightly changed since R 3.3.3
(e.g., support for ORCID ID).
The CRAN repository policy says:
> Uploads must be source tarballs created by R CMD build and following
> the PACKAGE_VERSION.tar.gz naming scheme. This should be done with
> current R-patched or the current release of R.
-> https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html
Further to that, note that you are using a non-standard role ("con").
See the details in help("person") for the roles used in the context of R
packages: aut, com, ctr, ctb, cph, cre, dtc, fnd, ths, trl.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Re: [R-pkg-devel] Win-builder: Author field differs from that derived from Authors@R
The difference is obviously in the "con" men. The definition of role="con" in
the MARC code list is
Conservator [con]
A person or organization responsible for documenting, preserving, or treating
printed or manuscript material, works of art, artifacts, or other media
UF Preservationist
Is this as intended?

[R-pkg-devel] Win-builder: Author field differs from that derived from Authors@R
Hi!
I'm relying on Authors@R to generate the Author: and Maintainer:
headers. When checking my package at win-builder using R-unstable, I
got a NOTE that Author field differs from that derived from Authors@R:
>> Author: 'Miquel Garriga [aut, cph], Stefan Gerlach [aut, cph],
>> Ion Vasilief [aut, cph], Alex Kargovsky [aut, cph], Knut Franke
>> [cph], Alexander Semke [cph], Tilman Benkert [cph], Kasper Peeters

>> Kasper Peeters [con, cph], Russell Standish [con, cph], Ivan Krylov
>> [cre, cph]'
Link to full check output:
https://win-builder.r-project.org/EWz9zWS0niO3/
The actual field from DESCRIPTION now looks like this:
>> Authors@R: c(person('Miquel', 'Garriga', email =
>> 'gbmiq...@gmail.com', role = c('aut', 'cph')), person('Stefan',
>> 'Gerlach', email = 'stefan.gerl...@uni-konstanz.de', role = c('aut',

The version of R I'm currently using is 3.3.3 (2017-03-06) from Debian
stable, which might explain the differences in utils:::format.person.
What should I do to avoid the NOTE?
