[R-pkg-devel] checking CRAN incoming feasibility NOTE

[R. Mark Sharp]

Roy, 

Thank you for your guidance and advice.

I ran usethis::use_cran_comments() shown below. 
> usethis::use_cran_comments()
✔ Setting active project to '/Users/msharp/Documents/Development/R/r_workspace/library/nprcmanager'
✔ Writing 'cran-comments.md'
✔ Adding '^cran-comments\\.md$' to '.Rbuildignore'
● Modify 'cran-comments.md’

The text of “cran-comments.md” follows and also makes me think it was a clean inspection:
## Test environments
* local OS X install, R 3.6.1
* ubuntu 14.04 (on travis-ci), R 3.6.1
* win-builder (devel and release)

## R CMD check results

0 errors | 0 warnings | 1 note

* This is a new release.

Sit tight, someone from CRAN will see that it is a new submission.  A new submission is given a much more thorough review,  so it can take a coupe days or more for CRAN to get back to you.  You can check the status of CRAN submissions at:

As a novice, I do not know what is to be expected within that NOTE and want to make sure the NOTEs I have received are satisfactory. I have not found an example of a minimal first submission NOTE. Below is what I am getting from the above test on rhub. I have three test environments but only two NOTEs. Do these results indicate a problem to be addressed?
