I am working on that. Let consider some quick stats with "grep". 1. Currently, the file bioconductor.scm contains 4 packages with 'cran-uri' and git blames you. :-) Well, the 4 commits are: : a207bca2ad gnu: r-codedepends: Move from cran to bioconductor. : 3a0babacdc gnu: Add r-htscluster. : 7ed869f796 gnu: Add r-nbpseq. : 80eb01c776 gnu: r-gkmsvm: Move to (gnu packages bioconductor). with some comments as --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- ;; This is a CRAN package, but it uncharacteristically depends on a ;; Bioconductor package --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Do you remember a special motivation? 2. The second point is that the file statistics.scm contains 227 packages and 206 are cran-uri. And the file cran.scm already contains 602 packages, so it will be almost as python-xyz.scm is. Why not. Then, this file statistics.scm will be almost empty and I propose instead to populate the files maths.scm, python-xyz.scm. What do you think? 3. It is a big move. Do you prefer - a commit per package, so more or less 300 commits? - or a commit bioconductor.scm->cran.scm, another statistics.scm->cran.scm, bioinformatics.scm->bioconductor.scm and bioconductor->bioinformatics.scm, etc.? Thank you for your insights. All the best, simon
