Subject: [Bioc-devel] Query about microshades package suitability for Bioconductor
In-Reply-To: <SJ0PR05MB8231678EAB8F46A54637476ACE9FA@SJ0PR05MB8231.namprd05.prod.outlook.com>
Dear Scott,
Sorry for not answering the first time you asked.
I thought someone else would give you some feedback but I guess no one did
it off-list.
How is this specific palette different from other palettes existing on CRAN
or Bioconductor?
What makes this specific palette better for Bioconductor packages (as
opposed to CRAN packages)? How does the repository or the package benefit
from being together with the other cohort of packages?
I think as a color palette is quite general purpose and doesn't require
much maintenance, your package might be better suited for CRAN. There you
can release one and if the checks pass you won't be required to update it
anymore.
Best wishes,
Llu?s Revilla
