[Bioc-devel] Long-form documentation for DelayedArray?

[Peter Hickey]

FYI I also began a project to support an additional backend;
https://github.com/PeteHaitch/matterArray. It's incomplete and may not work
with the current version of DelayedArray (it's ~3 months old and I was
naughtily using some internal functions of DelayedArray). I hope to return
to this soon and I have plans for 1-2 other backends, so some additional
documentation would also be appreciated by me :)
