Changes in version 2.99.0 (2024-10-01)                 

New Features

  - RNAseq data support for GEOquery. Now you can use RNASeq
    quantification data prepared by NCBI.
  - Basic search in GEO database. Now you can search for datasets in GEO
    database using GEOquery.
  - browseGEO() function to open a web browser with a GEO accession.

Breaking changes

  - getGEO() now returns a list of SummarizedExperiment objects. This is
    a breaking change from previous versions of GEOquery. If you are
    using GEOquery in a script, you will need to update your code to
    reflect this change.

Bug Fixes or Improvements

Not an exhaustive list, but some highlights:

  - Using httr2 instead of curl for better control over HTTP requests.
  - Removed dead gunzip code.
