[Bioc-devel] Vignette questions: location of html BiocStyle vignette, fake + real vignettes not necessary?

2015-10-29 Thread Leonardo Collado Torres
Hi, I'm planning on switching some vignettes to BiocStyle (html version). Is there any particular reason why the html vignette for BiocStyle is outside of the /vignettes directory?

Hi Thomas, thank you for sharing your idea! One possibility would be to include a package icon/logo next to the package name if the package provides one. This file could be saved as inst/logo.png or vignettes/logo.png, e.g. see https://github.com/aoles/EBImage/blob/master/vignettes/logo.png Best

And then there might be a whole problem about different social media summarising html content in different ways. This might be more trouble than it’s worth but more and more scientific news are moving to social media and it would definitely help share the Bioconductor brand (geez, I sound like a

Currently LinkedIn gives a header with the package name, then bioconductor.org as a byline, followed by: "To install this package, start R and enter: ## try http:// if https:// URLs are not supported source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R";) biocLite("FindMyFriends") In most cases, you don

I just sat down to write a linkedIn update about my recent package and noticed that a thumbnail styled summary was added once I put in the URL for my package (this is probably old news - I’m not much of a social media guy). The summary was a bit dull though, and I was wondering if it was possibl

It seems that both release and level nightly builds points to the devel repository (https://hedgehog.fhcrc.org/bioconductor/trunk/madman/Rpacks) at the moment. Furthermore all the builds in release are on uneven version numbers, further pointing to something fishy going on..? Or am I missing a n
