The cited htaccess rule just links the release version of the package. Since
this would already be an improvement, it is not sufficient for links in papers.
During the production process of the paper we want to link to the accompanying
BioC package that is in devel, but not yet in release. Before

If you want to document the versions of packages used in an analysis, there's
I guess my problem is that there is even an if at the beginning of that

project, can help/encourage people to do better.
Quite true.

Maybe a silly question, but: where is the R-alpha 3.2.0 ?
From the r-project.org page, choose 'download R', your local mirror and

Packages are (read: should be, IMHO) published, citable pieces of research,

doi/citation changing. That wouldn't be good
I don't disagree, but the existing setup does nothing to address that.
