[GenABEL-dev] new topic for Journal Club

[Maria G]

Hi :)

That's great, that more people become active :)

Do you mean the topic "Methodology for prediction equations of phenotypic data"?
Actually, it was my idea ;) I've asked Nicolas Guillemin if she would like to open a new topic for open discussion 
It looks like she liked that idea ;)

And you right, it's a good time to start  "the methodology forum"
The only thing, now I'm not sure, if it should be a separate forum, or just the "broadening" of the On-line Journal Club (as we disscused beforehand - to collect all topics under the one name "Journal Club", and later on to separate them into different topics, if necessary). 
If your idea is to start  a NEW "The methodology forum" in parallel with the NEW  1.6-7 release, than it would be reasonable to specify the difference between Journal Club and the Methodology forum

My interest is to demonstrate that this type of methodology, using lm and GenABEL, could be reliable for the project.
