[Bioc-devel] Bug tracking for packages

[Michael Lawrence]

Maybe the website needs a more obvious link to a guide on reporting issues
(basically what Dan just wrote)? It could even have a form (preferably with
type-ahead) that would let the user enter the package name, and it would
forward the client to the appropriate place (new github issue, support
site) based on BugReports. Maybe it could also prompt for session info and
auto-fill that information.
