Hi,

I added gene-expression to get package access.

Please activate the account 
https://git.bioconductor.org/BiocCredentials/account_activation. Add “new” SSH 
keys. Change the password.

gene-expression will then have access to the package, and like I mentioned 
before the changes on the package itself will be on your end to make.

Change the maintainer email, subscribe to bioc-devel etc.

Best,

Nitesh

Hi,

I think this might be possible to try.

So the maintainer email again has to be changed from your end on the 
DESCRIPTION file.

As far as access goes, I can add 
gene-express...@ebi.ac.uk<mailto:gene-express...@ebi.ac.uk>, on the 
BiocCredentials system. You’ll have to activate the account and add SSH keys.

gene-express...@ebi.ac.uk<mailto:gene-express...@ebi.ac.uk> will also have to 
follow all the protocols of a maintainer, so someone will have to actively 
monitor it and subscribe to 
bioc-devel@r-project.org<mailto:bioc-devel@r-project.org> mailing list.

Best,

Nitesh

Dear Nitesh,

I think that in the rush of Suhaib leaving, we didn’t finalise this process.

Is it acceptable to have a group email/account as maintainer? We would have 
gene-express...@ebi.ac.uk, which email gets to all the Expression Atlas team 
members. Then we wouldn’t need to repeat the process if any of us leaves.

Thanks,
Pablo
