I’ve been unable to contact Christopher, so given that he hasn’t released 
anything since 2008, I’ve dropped his permissions on the internal “microarray” 
package. Assuming it’s never released again, I think this is enough. I also 
raised an RT ticket about this, so it’s flagged should someone else want to do 
a release at some point in the future.
