The first note is mostly informational, though you might want to mention 
that metabolomics is spelled correctly in your submission message.

The second note should be fixed.  Apparently your package has both 
Authors and Authors using R fields.  Delete Authors and that should go away.

The third note only happened on one system, so it may be a false 
positive, but what it says is that your checks created a file called 
metabolomics_data.csv some place where it shouldn't have created it. 
You should only be writing in the temp directory, and you should clean 
up afterwards.
