Hi Tony, I think that there is a confusion between Policy and politics :) Debian packages are hand made and eye-reviewed, this is one core procedure that can not be changed without changing Debian's identity. The Biocoductor cran2deb repository is a great achievement that I hope we will support and advertise appropriately, through packages in our archive and documentation on our website. Steffen's message in http://lists.debian.org/[email protected] suggests that there will be a more general announcement. This would be a good candidate for being added to our website in its news section: http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-med/News/ Likewise, detailed instructions could be added to our website… Suggestions welcome ! In parallell, I think that it will be complementary to distribute some Bioconductor packages in Debian itself, in particular some that fit well with in our tasks.
