Actually looking at it a bit closer it seems that R 2.7.0 is a bit smarter about installing the NEWS file if it's present, see: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=445635#c11 for more details. This might affect a few packages that don't explicitly include NEWS in their %files list. If this is so, it would probably be useful if the sample spec files in the R packaging guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/R were also updated accordingly, as many people use those as templates to create new R packages.
