[BioC] Updated new package submission process

[Martin Morgan]

Bioconductors!

New, high quality, user-contributed packages addressing leading-edge
analyses and technologies are a great resource for the Bioconductor
community. We have adjusted and streamlined the new package submission
process, as outlined here:

  http://wiki.fhcrc.org/bioc/HowTo/Package_Contribution

The new contribution process emphasizes production of technically
correct packages meeting standards of functionality, documentation, and
interoperability. These changes take effect immediately; previously
submitted packages will be processed following the original approach.

We're also taking this opportunity to transfer the primary contact for
new package submissions to Chao-Jen Wong (see the Contact Information
section of the web page mentioned above); Nishant Gopalakrishnan has
done an excellent job moving packages through the submission process for
more than a year.

Best wishes,

Martin
