Hi,

I have developed an R package and want to publish it on Bioconductor. I found that there is a data file that excesses 5Mb and the whole package is larger than 5Mb. I clearly read the package submission guidelines and made the following tries:

1. Use smaller dataset.
2. Save data as .rda or .rds.

This two worked to some extent by compressing some of our data, but the problem still exists.

1. Get to know AnnotationHub and ExperimentHub, but some resource will be used in this package, such as GATK Panel-of-normal data, is public. So I am not sure whether it is suitable for us to build an annotation package using public dataset.

Do you have any suggestions on what to try next? Any information helps, thanks!

Best, Xin

For any question about the developmenrt of your package, please ask on the bioc-devel mailing list, or join the community-bioc Slack and ask on the #developers-forum or #package-submission channel. Thanks!
