But the 'fix' is very simple (and is not actually fixing anything - just trying to avoid confusion!): the default option now is set to 'transpose=TRUE'. So you can simply set this up manually when calling 'export.plink' :) Yurii On Wed, Apr 3, 2013 at 11:58 AM, Maria G wrote: > Dear Lennart, > > that's really helpful, thank you! > > Does it mean I have to update the version of GenABEL to get read of the > bug?

I think we communicated this simple workaround in the past, but I agree with Maria we should either announce it more widely, or, probably better push a new GenABEL release to CRAN (for those people who don't read the announcements :-)). Yurii, what do you think? One the one hand it is not urgent (we've been living with this bug for a while) on the other hand, the present situation is a dangerous one... Are there any developments in GenABEL SVN that are not ready for publishing yet? Best, Lennart.

I am not sure this particular fix justifies wider announcement, but in general, there are several ways we inform people about new things: If a bug was discussed on forum we probably need to update the topic. Bigger things are announced as news on www.genabel.org. We used to also put announcement as a 'sticky topic' on the forum (top topic - 'GenABEL/ProbABEL announcements') - but I think somehow it is not quite used. The last way of cause is if people hang on the devel-list :) I think everybody would benefit if someone would volunteer to update news/announcements more systematically (now only bigger things get occasionally in, when me or Lennart get time to put together a news story). best wishes, Yurii -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Lennart, I wonder if this fix somehow also address the export.plink bug #2055 discussed earlier. I also wonder what kind of unit test one can introduce for such 'memory leak' problem... Below please find description of testing of the patch and some minor changes I introduced. I have updated the code on SVN ( http://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/pipermail/genabel-commits/2013-April/000575.html) and closed the bug. best wishes, Yurii I have added a unit test for this bug in r. 1185, see http://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/pipermail/genabel-commits/2013-April/000574.html ) Then I ran unit tests without applying the patch yet by cd pkg/GenABEL/inst/unitTests make which gave me - as expected - GenABEL unit testing - 20 test functions, 1 error, 2 failures FAILURE in test.export.merlin.bug2525: Error in checkIdentical(xN, xO) : FALSE FAILURE in test.exports: Error in checkIdentical(xN, xO) : FALSE ERROR in test.impute2databel: Error in .Call("iterator", (you can also check report.html for details; the FAILURE's are related to the bug 2525, and the ERROR is related to other bug, so our aim is to eliminate these FAILURES) Next (from ../../../) I have applied the patch by patch -p0 -i ~/Downloads/patch_2525 and run unit tests again by cd pkg/GenABEL/inst/unitTests make which gave me GenABEL unit testing - 20 test functions, 1 error, 0 failures ERROR in test.impute2databel: Error in .Call("iterator", which I thought was good - basically the test FAILURES were eliminated. Now, the patch as submitted prints out much debugging (?) related staff to STDOUT, so next I commented out Rprintf's and ran the tests agin, getting GenABEL unit testing - 20 test functions, 1 error, 0 failures ERROR in test.impute2databel: Error in .Call("iterator", So, I conclude that the bug is fixed!

I looked multiple times for this link, but I never found it: there is a small usability problem which cam be easily fixed. I have also some irritation about the fact that there is no recognisable logo on the page. I looks like a complete default page to me: which gives me the impression that there is not any on it.

I will try to do this and let you know. Part of the problem is that I have no idea if it is possible to have primary link without having a page (so the user is brought directly to forum). If this is not possible, I will create a minimal page - basically the link to forum + short description. Does that sound like a good plan?

I even tried to design something myself, but it was SO bad :) Part of the problem is that obvious meaningful symbols (like chromosomes, sigmas and Gaussians) are boring and used for long time. Another part is that we can not just pick say a cute kitty and stop - there should be some meaning to the symbol (or not?). Do we have examples of successful, recognizable logos we like?I like FreeBSD, GNU's Gnu, also Firefox and Chrome are very distinguished.

Since we've been receving requests for it especially for the GxE with kinship (and I actually my self have been asking people whom I collaburate with to use it).

Representing a network of people is hard without giving the impression that GenAbel is a browser, chat or other program for the internet. Please prove me wrong if you think otherwise. Using DNA or chromosome is to my opinion a must. I think it is also important that the word GenABEL is visible as text in the logo. Otherwise people will think "what is this funny looking cartoon". It would also be nice to adjust the logo so the name of a subproject(Mix, Prob) can be written down into the logo. cheers, Maarten On 04/05/2013 01:21 PM, pirastu at burlo.trieste.it wrote: > Dear all, > > I really like the proposal, I just to add a few ideas to the discussion. > I think that there are some important concepts that could be used for a logo: > > 1) ABEL which is able in the end could be something like a hammer or a > tool of some sort. > > 2) I think that the great thing about the *ABEL project is that it is not > a single group but it is a network of people and we could rappresent that > also. > > 3) the * in *ABEL could be made by two crossed Chromosomes or something > else or maybe a DNA strand a tool and something else (Although I do > realize that it could remind of the comunist party this way :) ). > > 4) I do like animals, but I it should be meanigful somehow (although Linux > does have a penguin for some obscure reason). > > Best > > Nicola > > > > > > >> Dear Maarten, >> >> I have also some irritation about the fact that there is no recognisable >>> logo on the page.

I think it misses is goal if you have to play "where is Waldo?" in a logo: the simpler the better. Adding some greek symbols somewhere increase the "where is Waldo?"-effect. Maybe it is a idea to replace "project" with "Statistical toolkit" or "statistics project"(or is this plainly rude?)

URL: From lennart at karssen.org Wed Apr 24 16:37:44 2013 From: lennart at karssen.org (L.C. Karssen) Date: Wed, 24 Apr 2013 16:37:44 +0200 Subject: [GenABEL-dev] OmicABEL: DatABEL double format Message-ID: <5177EE38.2050008@karssen.org> Dear list, I was reading through the OmicABEL tutorial and noted that the DatABEL files should be in Double format. By default the GenABEL function mach2databel() creates float files. This means that all existing DatABEL files should be converted to double. I guess we should add a "convertType" program to the filevector utilities to make life easier for people. Or add a similar R function to DatABEL (and update mach2databel()). Does anybody have an idea if such a conversion from float to double can be done quickly? Of course conversion via an intermediate text file is also possible, but seems a bit awkward. As an aside, this would probably also fix the problems I ran into while trying to make ProbABEL compute everything in doubles (see http://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/pipermail/genabel-devel/2013-February/000505.html).

We have discussed this a bit during EMGM-2013 with Lennart and Nicola, and our suggestion (N, L, please correct me if I am wrong) is to 1) Pick up Maarten's variant 2) Replace "project" with "Statistical Genomics" as suggested below 3) Send this to a professional designer to make it 'nice' (I am willing to pay it unless it is too expensive) And of cause the logo can evolve later on if we get better ideas :) Please let us know what you think.
