Thanks for using the GRanges and GRangesList classes and providing 
feedback. These classes are still very young and need to be polished.
In particular some functionalities like the "reduce" method are still
missing. I added it to GenomicRanges 0.0.4. Make sure to update your
installation in about 24 hours.

Please let us know if you run into any other problem with these
classes.

Thanks,
H.
