I made a new TxDb Annotation package for Arabidopsis thaliana, based on BioMart release 51 (most recent one in Bioconductor is release 28).

For annotation packages, it is clearly indicated in the package submission guideline that packages@bioconductor.org should be contacted first, but I can't seem to get any answer from them - is there another email I can write to?

Cheers

would you please post the "sent" email about this package that has not been acknowledged? there have been changes in our system and yours may have been misplaced.

Dear Bioconductor team,

This is a kind reminder about the annotation package I’d like to submit. See email below from May 23rd.

Dear Bioconductor team,

I would like to submit an updated TxDb annotation package for Arabidopsis thaliana, based on Ensembl Plants release 51. The rationale is that the latest version available in Bioconductor is release 28, which is quite a while ago. The package is currently available on GitHub: https://github.com/athieffry/TxDb.Athaliana.BioMart.plantsmart51

Please let me know whether this could be interesting for Bioconductor, and what the following step would be in the affirmative.

Regards,

As an update. We are still working on branching annotations from the recent Bioconductor release. We should have this available within the next few days.

I would make sure you are registered and are following the name of the package as a watched tag here on the support site so that if questions arise about the package/data you will be notified. Cheers

Yes, I am registered and have the watched tags updated. I am not sure if I should be awaiting an email answer for further instructions about the package or perhaps a confirmation that it's been accepted or so? A bit in the blind here.

The package is now available in the devel version of Bioconductor, see the landing page here. Let us know if there are any further questions or issues.
