Hi,

When I upload my package to Github does the evaluation process start 
immediately? Or do I have to ask for it?


follow the instructions at

  https://github.com/Bioconductor/Contributions

when the issue is opened, someone (usually within 24 hours) moderates your package so that the package is built and checked, and a reviewer assigned. The reviewer will tackle your package without further intervention from you and in due course, although many contributors end up making substantial changes in response to the package builds before the reviewer provides feedback.

Furthermore, during the evaluation process do I get feedback about the 
dependencies of my package etc? I have those in my description file, but maybe 
they should be placed a little differently.


maybe, but if you have concerns then ask here first. No need to be secretive about things, so don't hesitate to mention your package github location (even before submission) and be specific and simple about your question.

Moreover, when I run biocheck I get en error that I don't have any biocviews. I 
read the manual for creating those, but it is very difficult to understand. Do 
I do this after I upload the package to github or on my MAC?


Simply add a field biocViews: to the DESCRIPTION file, with terms chosen from those available in the navigation widget at

  http://bioconductor.org/packages/devel/BiocViews.html#___Software

See for example the terms in


https://github.com/Bioconductor-mirror/GenomicRanges/blob/master/DESCRIPTION
