[R] check() warnings for survival-2.6

[Thomas Hoffmann]

I am not sure if this is the right place for that kind of questions, but
I wondered
that the recommended package survival did not pass R's check procedure
without
warnings:

1) unbalanced braces:
*   Rd files with unbalanced braces:
*     man/Surv.Rd
*     man/cluster.Rd
*     man/cox.zph.Rd
*     man/coxph.Rd
*     man/coxph.detail.Rd
*     man/date.ddmmmyy.Rd
*     man/lines.survfit.Rd
*     man/plot.cox.zph.Rd
*     man/predict.survreg.Rd
*     man/pyears.Rd
*     man/residuals.coxph.Rd
*     man/stanford2.Rd
*     man/strata.Rd
*     man/summary.survfit.Rd
*     man/survdiff.Rd
*     man/survexp.Rd
*     man/survfit.Rd
*     man/survreg.control.Rd
*     man/survsum.Rd
*     man/untangle.specials.Rd

2) missing docs:
* checking for undocumented objects ... WARNING

 [3] "[.ratetable"             "[.ratetable2"

[37] "survreg.fit"             "tcut"                   

3) non-matching docs:
* checking for code/documentation mismatches ... WARNING
$as.date
$as.date$code
[1] "x"     "order" "..."  
$as.date$docs
[1] "x"


If I did not miss something, these are bugs, but not of R, but of a
contributed
package. What is the right place for reporting such bugs?

Kind regards,
Thomas.
