Hello Community,
A brief update on the "bioconductor/bioconductor_docker:devel" image which is
produced by the Bioconductor team.
The image will now be updated "weekly" on Friday evening around 6pm EST. This
means that the image will have the latest version of R-devel by the week, and
pushed to docker hub with a new version number located in the Dockerfile.
The version number will be located in the LABEL field of the Dockerfile, which
is available to be inspected in the docker image, with the following command
```
$ docker inspect bioconductor/bioconductor_docker:devel
```
This will produce a JSON file which shows the following "Labels". Please note
that the "version" in this section refers to the update, i.e "3.11.3". Next
week it will be "3.11.4" and so on, till there is a new Bioconductor devel
version number, which will reset the count. The version number in the format
"x.y.z", refers to the bioconductor version number in the "x.y" coordinates,
and the "z" coordinate indicates the version of the Dockerfile / Docker image
being updated.
```
