[Bioc-devel] package download statistics

2013-04-19 Thread Robert M. Flight
Is there any central, web-accessible location for the download statistics for all of the Bioconductor packages? I know each packages web-page has a link to a page with all of the download statistics, but was wondering if there was an easy way to get access to all of the statistics for given package

[Bioc-devel] converting character vector to DNAStringSetList

2013-04-19 Thread Stephanie M. Gogarten
Hi all, There is a non-exported function in VariantAnnotation called .toDNAStringSetList that converts a vector of comma-separated character strings to a DNAStringSetList. I'd like to use this code in a package I'm working on. Would it make sense to export this from Biostrings? If not, wha

[Bioc-devel] DESeq2 and Tranformsation(s)

2013-04-19 Thread Steve Lianoglou
Greetings, I'm kicking tires on the new DESeq2 package -- very nicely done, btw, thanks!. I have a quick question about the use of the variance and rlog transformations. It seems that both functions prefer to receive a DESeqDataSet with a design set to formula(~ 1). I say "prefer" because while

Thanks, Herve! To answer Tim's question (though it has become irrelevant after Herve's solution): because I'd rather not add VariantAnnotation to my dependency tree for only a couple of lines of code. It also seemed like the sort of thing that should be possible with a DNAStringSetList constr
