[R-pkg-devel] NOTE with unusual but theoretically allowed person roles
While checking a package as cran with R 3.3.2 (Windows 8 and Ubuntu 16.04),
I am getting a NOTE about person roles which are unusual but theoretically
allowed.
In the DESCRIPTION file I set:
Authors@R: c(
person("First", "Person", email = "m...@mail.com", role = c("aut", "cre")),
person("Second", "Person", role = c("dtc", "csl")))
Author: First Person [aut, cre],
Second Person [dtc, csl]
Then I get a NOTE:
Author field differs from that derived from Authors@R
Author:'First Person [aut, cre], Second Person [dtc, csl]'
Authors@R: 'First Person [aut, cre], Second Person [dtc]'
If I delete the role 'csl', the note dissapears.
It seems that R code is not allowing the role 'csl' (Consultant), although
it is in the MARC Code List for Relators (https://www.loc.gov/marc/rela
tors/relaterm.html)
If I run the code in the console, apparently Authors@R and Authors fit, so
I don't understand the NOTE:
> c(person("First", "Person", email = "m...@mail.com", role = c("aut",
"cre")),
person("Second", "Person", role = c("dtc", "csl")))
[1] "First Person [aut, cre]"
[2] "Second Person [dtc, csl]"
I get more confused when I run the same code in r-fiddle.org and I get a
different output:
Invalid role specification: 'dtc'.
[1] "First Person [aut, cre]"
[2] "Second Person [csl]"
I have tried with other roles not included as suggested in ?person, such as
'pdr' (Project director), or 'sad' (Scientific advisor), with the same
problem.
I can just consider the second person as a contributor and go on, but... is
this an expected behavour? What I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.

[R-pkg-devel] How do you discover and learn about R packages?
I am contributing to a session at userR 2017 this coming July that will focus on discovering and learning about R packages. This is an increasingly important issue for R users as we all decide which of the 10,000+ packages to invest time in understanding and then use in our work. To prepare for this session and gain some understanding, I am running an online survey about how R users currently discover and learn about R packages: http://doo.vote/a87ff60 The question has one multiple select question about how you currently discover and learn about R packages. If you have other ways that you don’t feel were fairly covered in the survey options, feel free to reply to me or leave a comment here on my blog: http://juliasilge.com/blog/Package-Search/ Thanks, Julia [[alternative HTML version deleted]] __ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel

Julia, Just took the poll. I think cranberries would deserve mention there as well. It is the only continuous feed that reports in new pkgs and updates (that I know of).

Re: [R-pkg-devel] How do you discover and learn about R packages?
Yes, great input! I appreciate Dirk also bringing up CRANberries earlier; it is such a valuable resource. I know that users are glad to access it via Twitter and its separate website.
