[BioC] combineBeadLevelLists() in Bioconductor 2.8 beadarray

[Alex Gutteridge]

Hi,

Older versions of beadarray have a combineBeadLevelList() for combining
bead level data lists read from two different Illumina chips into one list.
In the latest beadarray this seems to have been removed, but I can't find
anything in the documentation describing the correct way to do this with
the new beadLevelData class. Am I missing something obvious or is this no
longer supported?
