actually a lot of it was optional (like all the dependencies). but that wasn't 
clear enough, i guess.

ok, i've changed some things here. the "author" section now uses the same 
object class and element structure the person() function of R does. most 
importantly, this adds a "role" attribute to each listed person, so you can 
tell authors from maintainers and contributors.

and as you suggested i simplified the amount of information needed to get 
started, down to a plugin name and at least one author. so this works now:

about.info <- list(
 name="Square the circle",
 author=c(
 person(given="E.A.", family="Dölle",
  email="doelle at eternalwondermaths.example.org", role="aut"),
 person(given="A.", family="Assistant",
  email="alterego at eternalwondermaths.example.org", role=c("cre","ctb"))
))
rk.plugin.skeleton("Square the Circle", about=about.info)


viele grüße :: m.eik
