[Bioc-devel] bibtex support?

 Hi all,

Does anybody have experience with using bibtex in vignettes? In the
latest version of my package I switched to bibtex for managing the
citations in the vignette of my package, including a .bib file in
inst/doc. This seemed to work fine when I tested it myself. But in the
final release vignette I see all my references replaced by question
marks :-(.

Is bibtex at all supported by the build process?

Vince,

This looks good for non-tiling Chip-chip data, but not for tiling or 
promoter-tiling chips which are rapidly becoming the standard (?) for 
performing chip-chip analysis.  I would vote for making some distinction

between gene-based chip-chip data and tiling/promoter-based chip, as the

analysis methods and featureData are quite distinct from PCR-product
based 
arrays.  This is probably just a naming thing, but I think ChIPset
implies 
different things to different people.  Or, if you go with ChIPset, I
guess a 
TilingChIPset could be created?  I'm not proposing a solution, but just 
pointing out that to many people, ChIP-chip data will imply tiling-array
data 
with genomic locations, etc. and to others it will not.
