Hi Witold -- if you'd like to submit a patch, I will apply this to the package and notify the maintainer. I suggest you either use svn to check out the 'devel' version of the package, make your changes, and forward to me (martin.morgan at roswellpark.org) the output of svn diff (basic instructions here http://bioconductor.org/developers/how-to/source-control/), or do similar against the Bioconductor github mirror https://github.com/Bioconductor-mirror/topGO; for the latter you cannot submit a 'pull' request to the mirror, but you could point me to your repository.

There is not much to complain about topGO (on the contrary) except that the package uses cat instead of message to display progress information. which ruins the report. Also the bioconductor package guidelines state: cat() or print() are used only when displaying an object to the user, e.g., in a show method. This makes it difficult to integrate topGO. I did contact the maintainer asking to update topGO. However I did not get an reply. It seems that the maintainer is occupied with other problems. I did offer to replace the cat with message for these functions I am using myself. No reply. So what I am wondering is... If I do the corrections, and would like to commit the code... Sure I could create a branch but since I do not have write access to svn no chance to push (commit) it for review. And who is going to review it if the maintainer does not have time? best Witold -- Witold Eryk Wolski _______________________________________________ Bioc-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/bioc-devel This email message may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.
