Bioconductors: We are pleased to announce Bioconductor 2.8, consisting of 466 software packages and more than 500 up-to-date annotation packages. There are 48 new software packages, and many updates and improvements to existing packages. Two software packages that were in the previous version have been removed. Bioconductor 2.8 is compatible with R 2.13.0, and is supported on Linux, 32- and 64-bit Windows, and Mac OS. Visit http://bioconductor.org for details and downloads. Contents ======== * Getting Started with Bioconductor 2.8 * New Software Packages * Using Bioconductor in the cloud Getting Started with Bioconductor 2.8 ===================================== To install Bioconductor 2.8: 1. Install R 2.13.0. Bioconductor 2.8 has been designed expressly for this version of R. 2. Follow the instructions here: http://bioconductor.org/install/ Please visit http://bioconductor.org for details and downloads.

Congratulations on the release, folks! Two things. (1) Regarding the packages: > lol > > ?Lots Of Lasso (a) This made me lol (b) then I thought to myself "I wish I thought of that name" (c) then I thought to myself "I've got to check this out" (d) then I went to the bioconductor software page to find it, and it seems MIA (e) which, I don't know why, also made me lol (Just wanted to file the bug report) Also: > Using Bioconductor in the cloud > =============================== > > This release features the Bioconductor Amazon Machine > Image (AMI), which allows easy access to R and Bioconductor > within the Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). This is a great idea, thanks to all involved for doing this. -- Steve Lianoglou Graduate Student: Computational Systems Biology ?| Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center ?| Weill Medical College of Cornell University Contact Info: http://cbio.mskcc.org/~lianos/contact

Hi, it is great to have R and BioC in the cloud! Is there any reason to provide your own image from the BioC core team? Check this: [1]http://www.wurlug.org/wurlug/index.php/BioNode Great group, great support, ... Best Markus References 1. http://www.wurlug.org/wurlug/index.php/BioNode

Hello Dan, Updating Bioconductor devel packages as instructed in http://bioconductor.org/install/ usually leads to stalled downloads when it retrieves large packages. The BSgenome packages are notorious for this. Can you or anybody recommend a solution that does not involve manually downloading the tar balls one by one? (Perhaps the is a mirror for devel.) Thank you, Ivan On Thu, Apr 14, 2011 at 5:33 PM, Dan Tenenbaum <dtenenba at="" fhcrc.org=""> wrote: > Bioconductors: > > We are pleased to announce Bioconductor 2.8, consisting of 466 > software packages and more than 500 up-to-date annotation packages. > There are 48 new software packages, and many updates and improvements > to existing packages.
