[Bioc-devel] MOFA package deprecation

[Kern, Lori]

Yes. Im very sorry. I realized you requested this originally and I never changed the default message.  I just pushed up now and it should propagate on tomorrow's build.

Cheers,

Hi Lori,

a quick follow up question on the package depreciation of Mofa which you took care of a while ago. Would it be possible to also have the pointer to mofa2 on the landing page of the package instead of only in the startup message? There it simply reads
https://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/MOFA.html<https://secure-web.cisco.com/1Kz7i_eW1lTdwpbz7PFAPNXNzatDHK0J5r8kHh5H1FB402_tnyKBljYfXIsg70WRMOvwW9iiiOcpBntwfbDLXe9g2agna6_zQ2iZKYhWWduBMZYS8fuGoeUJWGMT1Gc9nV7ajn8ktXi-Wh96pgtvYB6KEBSBrHb2m0ze-Wyhq0dLSqkWbCLJp2xRmfs_CmiZWiEY_l0bd-v3ZInp-OrXLgN_rApq3cY2puIVPywMunvYzzcbXsVs7pYTkPUmSWE06jnjcrpv7PnmT3AClZSOW-UGpKqWIf9TXGE-MGn8EbwQPJ09XLFQbuWGwn7gg2uR3/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bioconductor.org%2Fpackages%2Frelease%2Fbioc%2Fhtml%2FMOFA.html>
"This package is deprecated. It will probably be removed from Bioconductor.�

This has led to some confusion and it would be great to have the pointer to the new alternative package there.

Thanks and best regards
Britta

Thank you for letting us know.  Yes I can specialize the message to point users to MOFA2.  I will take care of this later today.

Does MOFA2 still use the accompanied data package MOFAdata or should that also be deprecated?

Subject: [Bioc-devel] MOFA package deprecation

Dear Bioconductor core team,

I would like to deprecate the MOFA package as it has been superseded by MOFA2.
Is it possible to add a note for users to turn to MOFA2 in the deprecation warning for MOFA?

Best,
Britta
