dear maintainers,

I am currently listed as maintainer of Bioconductor package MoonlightR, 
designed for the prediction of cancer driver genes, which implements the 
Moonlight workflow.

We are currently working on a second version of our workflow, called 
Moonlight2, and would like to have it released on Bioconductor as well, in form 
of the Moonlight2R package. The new package uses similar principles as the 
current one, but will have significant changes and updates, both in terms of 
new functionality and revision of old functionalities. The Moonlight2R 
project/paper will also have in part a different corresponding authorship 
respect to the current one. MoonlightR and Moonlight2R currently reside in two 
separate GitHub repositories.

Ideally we would like to have both packages on BioConductor for the moment, the 
old one (called MoonlightR) and the new one that we intend to submit before the 
April cut-off for 3.17 (called Moonlight2R), where the number signifies the 
version of the protocol rather than the software. However on the package 
submission list, I see that having package names that "imply a temporal 
relationship" respect to an existing package is discouraged. Given the 
circumstances, do you think it would be possible to use the Moonlight2R name 
for the package (i.e. would it be a reason for rejection or object of revision 
during submission) or is it fair to keep it as is?

Many thanks
