[Bioc-devel] Important Bioconductor Release 3.15 deadlines this week!

[Kern, Lori]

The deadline for fixing packages in preparation for the release is this Friday April 22nd. All packages should be installing, building, and checking without ERROR in the Bioconductor build report.  While you can continue to push changes past this date, this ensures all changes are reflected in the build report.  Package that continue to show ERROR's in the build report after the release will be up for consideration for deprecation.

Please also remember to update your NEWS files for any information about changes to your packages during this last development cycle.  Bioconductor collates all package news files as part of the release announcement.

For clarification:
The release 3.15 branch has not yet been created.  Please continue to update master/devel branch.
Next week when the release occurs the core team will automatically create the RELEASE_3_15 branch on git.bioconductor.org but until that time the only branch accessible is master.

Cheers,
