[R-pkg-devel] Possible mis-spelled words ...

I just had a revision of a package built by win-builder, as a way of 
exposing it to a rigorous check before uploading it to CRAN.

The 00check.log contained the note:

 > Possibly mis-spelled words in DESCRIPTION:
 >   Delaunay (4:8, 10:29)
 >   Voronoi (4:46, 11:5)
 >   triangulations (12:28)

The spellings are, as far as I can tell correct.  Is there a way of 
telling the package checker that these spellings are OK?

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,

Rolf Turner
