limma used to use regular lists for RG data but now it uses S4 
objects of class RGList.  Matt Ritchie wrote the kooperberg 
function, so I'm CCing the email to him.  He has (for the 
moment) used the old style (just a regular list).  You can 
convert it to the new style with:

RGobj <- new("RGList",.Data=RGmodel)
as(RGobj,"exprSet")

Hope this helps,
James
