For anyone that is maintaining a Bioconductor mirror/rsync please make any
necessary updates within the next two weeks regarding location / legacy
Bioconductor releases.
Starting last year, Bioconductor has moved archived versions of Bioconductor
off the AWS cloudfront instance. Syncing to legacy releases of Bioconductor is
not allowed and wasted effort as once Bioconductor freezes a release, no
maintainer is allowed to make changes to that Bioconductor branch ever. We
would notify mirrors if any package has to be removed because of any violations
and they would have to be removed manually. Several of you have noticed this
switch with Bioconductor versions <= 3.14. Noticing that your rsync resulted
in an empty repository. In roughly 2 weeks, May 15th, we will begin the
process of moving 3.18 off into the archive. If you have set up your rsync to
use numerical indications and/or with the --delete flag, you may need to
adjust your rsync commands to keep a legacy version of Bioconductor and not
have it completely removed. Please make any adjustment by May 15th.
