Subject: [Bioc-devel] request for more notices about build issues

dear core Bioc-ers,

It would be nice to have more devel mailing list notices about large
scale build issues, just to keep developers in the loop. (e.g. I
often
get a number of emails when GenomicRanges is down, asking why I'm
breaking someone's downstream package).

Or if you don't want to "push" these out to the list, to have a URL
where core team could post information about what's going on in devel
and rough timelines about upcoming changes. Then developers can
"pull"
this information when they need to.

thanks for all your work! There are lots of exciting things in the
next release, and I know that's it's a lot of work to get to the
finish.

If it's ok with everyone, I'll address this by just sending email to bioc-devel when there are
large-scale build issues. If you see an issue and I don't address it, please email the list.

Dan

best,

Mike
