The spellings are, as far as I can tell correct. Is there a way of
telling the package checker that these spellings are OK?
You can put them in single quotes, and the spell checker won't check
them. Of course, that would make your DESCRIPTION look like crap.
Indeed, the idea is to have software names in single quotes etc., see
WRE, but names of persons should be fine as they are.
You'll just have to throw yourself on the mercy of the CRAN judges.
Indeed.
And let me point out that patches are still welcome....

I have a very vague recollection of having seen something about this
topic on this mailing list, but a search of the archives turned up
nothing. Nor could I find anything about "mis-spellings" in "Writing R
Extensions".
I don't like leaving a package in a state in which the package checker
produces NOTES. Is there anything that I can do about this one? Other
than remove the offending words, which I am reluctant to do.
cheers,
