The release date for Bioc 3.19 is tentatively scheduled for Wednesday April 
24th. The 3.19 release will use R-4.4. With R dependency 4.4, these deadlines 
are subject to change once CRAN announces their official 4.4 release date. We 
are releasing this tentative schedule to allow for adequate planning by package 
maintainers.  The following highlights important deadlines for the release.

Important deadlines can be found on the website:

As a Quick Summary:


Friday March 22: New package submission deadline. Packages will still need to 
pass the formal review process to be included in Release 3.19. We will try to

Packages submitted after this date are not guaranteed to be reviewed; they will 
be reviewed time pending. Package reviewers are volunteer and have a limited 
capacity for review.
