Hello all,


Many have requested a page that helps identify common Bioconductor methods and classes that should try to be utilized in package development.  We have created the following webpage in the developers resources section of the website and links are also include in the package-guidelines.

Cheers,

Looks like a good start. Would be nice to have some extra information (text
description, some diagrams), and links to relevant documentation.

For methods, I suggests writing that authors should look through
BiocGenerics for things they ought to _think_ about.  And emphasize that
some of these methods probably does not make sense for many classes.

Best,
Kasper
