Hi Simon, We're trying to clean up the Bioconductor builds for the upcoming April release. I see we don't have mac binaries on CRAN for R devel (3.4). Are you planning to build those before the next release? Another question is what OS X will be used in the next R devel after the April release. Is it safe to assume it will also be Mavericks or should we prepare for one of the others - Yosemite, El Capitan or Sierra? Thanks.

In the absence of a quick response from Simon (and you wrote to a list, not a person): Note that 3.4.0 does not have a release date yet (except not before Apr 15). Discussion on the minimal supported macOS version and supported toolchains has started, but I don't expect decisions until the month-long run-in period for 3.4.0. I am sure once that is in place, binary packages will be produced when possible.
