Publish data on bioconductor?

Dear jdblischak,
I was wondering if you can create a data package on bioconductor containing the processed data. The reason I am asking is that I wrote an R package for the quantification of batch effects (https://github.com/theislab/kBET), for which I created a vignette using your processed data. The guidelines of bioconductor require a separate storage of experimental data and I think that you are certainly unhappy if I am to publish your processed data on bioconductor.
You would certainly help me and it gives you the opportunity to reach a broader audience.
Best regards
Hi @mbuttner! Cool method! Thanks for your interest in our project. I'd be happy to help facilitate you and others using our data. Some follow-up questions:
- What type of package would you prefer? A traditional experiment data package or an ExperimentHub package?
- What kind of object would you prefer? I am most familiar with the ExpressionSet class, so I would default to this.
- Which data files do you need easily available for your package? Do you need the reads too or only the molecules (i.e. UMI counts)?
