If it's a Core/Updates package, you'll need to check its changelog
entries:
$ rpm -q --changelog <pkg> | less
If it's an Extras package, you can find it in the owners.list file [1]
in CVS.

Thanks, Peter and Ronald. I wanted to contact the maintainer of R to
remind him that R version 2.4.0 was released two weeks ago.
You should use that using bugzilla rather than mail maintainers.
Bugzilla reports are public, query able, trackable etc.
