In fact, the reason for rejection is just after the 'misspelled' words:
>The Title field should be in title case, current version then in title case:
'>Searching for Optimal MDS Procedure for Metric and Interval-valued Symbolic Data'
>'Searching for Optimal MDS Procedure for Metric and Interval-Valued Symbolic Data'
Just copy the second line, which is the suggested title in 'title case'.
(and write in the Note field on the submission page that the misspelled words are actually names, which you have checked)

Ok, my fault sorry:
This is the original message for current submission from prof. Ligges

Dear maintainer,
package mdsOpt_0.3-1.tar.gz does not pass the incoming checks automatically, please see the pre-test at:

Current CRAN status: ERROR: 1, OK: 11
See: <https://CRAN.R-project.org/web/checks/check_results_mdsOpt.html>
Please fix all problems and resubmit a fixed version via the webform.
If you are not sure how to fix the problems shown, please ask for help on the R-package-devel mailing list:

If you are fairly certain the rejection is a false positive, please reply-all to this message and explain.

Status: 1 NOTE
So I assume the rejection is due to misspelling note (or maybe I cannot read this message properly :-))
Still appreciate any help
Best regards
