CHANGES IN VERSION 1.36.1
-----------------------

BUG FIXES AND MINOR IMPROVEMENTS

    o Improve the `read.dcf` operation that looks for any deprecated packages
    in both Bioconductor release and devel versions.

CHANGES IN VERSION 1.36.0
-----------------------

NEW FEATURES

    o Include size limit checks for data files in `data`, `inst/extdata`, and
    `data-raw` folders (@lshep, @const-ae, #167, #67)
    o Source package directories that include an `inst/doc` folder with files
    are now flagged with an error. `doc` folders are generated during
    `R CMD build`.
    o The error for packages already hosted on CRAN has been converted to a
    warning (@lshep, #177). Any such incoming packages must be removed from CRAN
    before the following Bioconductor release.

BUG FIXES AND MINOR IMPROVEMENTS

    (@grimbough, #189)

    was reported (@grimbough, #182)

    #184)
    o Update email in bioc-devel subscription check (@lshep, #185)

    identify them (@LiNk-NY)

CHANGES IN VERSION 1.34
-----------------------

NEW FEATURES

    o Redundant package dependencies checks between `DESCRIPTION` and
    `NAMESPACE` have been removed. These are already present in `R CMD check`
    as "checking package dependencies".

    interference with loaded packages (@vjcitn, #158)

    o Fix bug where inputs to `getDirFile` were vectors in
    `checkForValueSection` (@zeehio, #163)

    (@harpomaxx, #100)
    o Update internal documentation of the `BiocCheck-class`

    (@LiNk-NY, #157)
