[Bioc-devel] Action for Uncompressed Data Warning

[Martin Morgan]

My general approach is to make the build report as clean as possible, so 
that (a) it's easy to see true positives and (b) I'm not provoked by 
notes / warnings that I think of as irritating more than useful each 
time I look at the build report :) . So yes, I'd recompress the data.
