| Hi,

| BioConductor has just released version 3.17. Since the next r-base

These two events are basically unrelated. (BioC releases twice a year, and
the April release comes usually right after an R release. Those may warrant
staging. October releases do not. It uses R 4.3.*. Note the wildcard.)
| right now. (No idea whether we will see a proper r-api transition but
R does not change APIs on _minor_ releases such as 4.3.2 next week.

| Kind regards and thanks a lot for your work as release team
