Hi, My name is Younathan and I am trying to submit it but every time it gives me message that my package does not pass the incoming checks automatically and it gives me 3 NOTES. I tried to fix them but I am unable to do so. If possible do you know how to take care of the 3 Notes. The three notes are as following: * checking CRAN incoming feasibility ... NOTE Maintainer: 'Younathan Abdia <yabdia at bwh.harvard.edu>' New submission Possibly mis-spelled words in DESCRIPTION: Plasmode (3:8) The Title field starts with the package name. The build time stamp is missing. * checking DESCRIPTION meta-information ... NOTE Checking should be performed on sources prepared by 'R CMD build'. * checking top-level files ... NOTE Non-standard file/directory found at top level: 'Plasmode.Rproj' You can also see the NOTES by clicking on the link. https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/170927_165838_Plasmode_010/00check.log Please let me know if there is any question or concern.

[R-pkg-devel] R Package Submission Problem
4 messages · Abdia, Younathan, MTurgeon, Uwe Ligges +1 more
Hi Younathan, You can ignore the first note: it simply says that this is a new package. The second note highlights a few possible problems with your DESCRIPTION file. It flags the word "Plasmode" as being possibly misspelled; if it isn't, you can ignore the comment. Then it points out that the Title field contains the name of the package; as per CRAN policy, you shouldn't do that (cf. the manual, https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#The-DESCRIPTION-file). Finally, the third note says that there is a file in the tarball that shouldn't be there, namely Plasmode.Rproj. You can control what is omitted from the tarball using the .Rbuildignore file. In particular, you could add the following line: ^Plasmode\.Rproj$ Max

More important: Checking should be performed on sources prepared by 'R CMD build'. So at first prepare the sources via R CMD build and then check yourself prior to submission following the CRAN policies. And *really* read that. Best, Uwe Ligges

Also from the CRAN submission guidelines:
If there are warnings or notes you cannot eliminate (for example
because you believe them to be spurious) send an explanatory note as part of your covering email, or as a comment on the submission form. This would apply to your spelling issues.
