Changes in version 1.24.0                        

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  - Create an on-the-fly sampleMap for RNASeq2GeneNorm* data version
    2.1.1. Data source has munged colnames and sample maps were not
    updated in the latest upload (#59, @LiNk-NY)

                       Changes in version 1.22.0                        

New features

  - Data version 2.1.1 is now availble. It contains updates to
    RNASeq2GeneNorm*, and RNASeq2Gene*, as well as fixes to the curated
    subtypes in the colData for OV and SKCM.

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  - When the assays argument was RNASeq2Gene, curatedTCGAData would
    incorrectly include RNASeq2GeneNorm assays. Users who want to return
    both assay types should enter RNASeq2Gene* instead (with an
    asterisk).
  - When more than one BiocVersion in the metadata was available, the
    curatedTCGAData function would return duplicate results. This has
    been fixed to obtain either the matching BiocVersion or the latest
    version in the metadata.

                       Changes in version 1.14.0                        

New features

  - The version argument now allows users to select either 1.1.38 or
    2.0.1.
  - Version 2.0.1 includes RNASeq2Gene data as RSEM TPM gene expression
    values (#38, @mherberg).
  - Genomic information updated for RaggedExperiment type data objects
    where '37' is now 'GRCh37' (#40, @vjcitn).
  - Datasets (e.g., OV, GBM) that contain multiple assays that could be
    merged are now provided as merged assays (#27, @lwaldron).
  - The vignette now includes sections on how to use the
    TCGAprimaryTumors and getWithColData functions.

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  - mRNAArray assays now return matrix type data instead of DataFrame
    (#31, @lgeistlinger, @vjcitn).
  - Removed force download of GISTIC resources
  - Published article now available with citation("curatedTCGAData")

                       Changes in version 1.12.0                        

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  - Output dataset options as table when dry.run is enabled in the main
    function.
  - Check for RaggedExperiment dependency when loading data that uses
    the data representation (@vjcitn, #39)

                       Changes in version 1.10.0                        

New features

  - Control verbosity of curatedTCGAData function with the verbose
    argument (@lgeistlinger, #35)
  - Fallback added for when ExperimentHub service is offline (@vjcitn,
    #36)
  - Data export section added to main vignette due to new features in
    MultiAssayExperiment

                        Changes in version 1.8.0                        

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  - Add a caveats section for working with TCGA data in the vignette
    (@vjcitn suggest)
  - Provide examples for TCGAutils::TCGAsampleSelect in the vignette

                        Changes in version 1.6.0                        

New features

  - Methylation data represented as a DelayedMatrix with associated HDF5
    files within a SummarizedExperiment object. They can be downloaded
    using the Methyl* assay keyword.
  - Big changes to documentation with table added for detailing
    ExperimentList data types (thanks to @lgeistlinger)
  - Vignette now includes some helper functions provided by TCGAutils

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  - TCGAutils is available for use with curatedTCGAData
  - 'GISTIC_Peak' datasets are force downloaded due to caching mechanism
    issues
  - Issue of missing 'GISTIC' data for LAML and SKCM due to incorrect
    file links has been resolved (#29 @pcheng84)
  - Updated data documentation

                        Changes in version 1.4.0                        

New features

  - dry.run argument in curatedTCGAData returns a list of metadata file
    matches

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  - Main function now uses the MultiAssayExperiment constructor function

New features

  - Released to Bioconductor
  - Supports multiple cancers with auto-merge of colData
  - Added full list of data types

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  - Code clean up (helper functions)
  - Use metadata in main function to return list of datasets

                        Changes in version 0.2.0                        

Bug fixes and minor improvements

  - Updated DESCRIPTION file to reflect authorship.
  - Progress towards submission to ExperimentHub
