Hi
is there already a best practice (example?) for how to deliver vignettes
written in org-mode (http://orgmode.org) in Bioconductor packages?
Three possibilities come to mind.
Implement the equivalent of the knitr package, preferably without external
dependencies (sounds like a fun exercise ;)) and simply add the package to the
VignetteBuilder: tag to the DESCRIPTION file (as in Writing R Extensions).
Do the two-step of transforming org-mode to an intermediate form, e.g.,
markdown, then using standard tools. The transformation would be the
maintainer's responsibility, prior to svn commit. This is essentially how
roxygen2 is being used for man pages.
(Even as an emacs user I find it weird to tie documentation to an application.)
Martin
(This would also require that emacs and its ESS and org modes are installed
on the build servers.)
