[R-pkg-devel] Win-builder: Author field differs from that derived from Authors maybe from R

[peter dalgaard]

The difference is obviously in the "con" men. The definition of role="con" in the MARC code list is

Conservator [con]
A person or organization responsible for documenting, preserving, or treating printed or manuscript material, works of art, artifacts, or other media
UF Preservationist

Is this as intended?
