Bioconductor packages

I have an interest in developing Bioconductor packages. I am currently the maintainer of scMerge. I am thinking about working towards integrating tidyverse concepts with S4-class objects in Bioconductor, e.g. through plyexperiment.

I think the Bioconductor framework for package management (and by extension, the pursue for reproducibility in research) is invaluable. Thus, I have taken up some extra efforts to learn about the git version control system and the package continuous integration tool travis. I also use docker, which you can read about here.
