[BioC] differing versions of limma

[Sean Davis]

Adai,

I think the release packages become static (in terms of version) after a 
bioconductor release has been made.  You can visit the developer package 
page to get most recent versions of bioconductor packages.  As for limma, 
I'm not sure how quickly the versions make it to the development page, but I 
don't think it is typically more than a minor release or two behind.  Gordon 
Smyth (much to everyone's benefit--thanks Gordon) is seemingly continually 
developing new functionality....
