[GenABEL-dev] GenABEL tutorials to SVN - figures

[Yurii Aulchenko]

Dear All,

changing the subject a bit so it is easier to track things.

I think for one figure (figure 2 from
http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0005472)
we are fine - see below the extract from PLoS ONE site. It looks like we do
not even need to request permission.

I will investigate the issue with chapter "GWA analysis in presence of
stratification: theory" of the tutorial further (it overlaps - both in
figures and text - with a a chapter of a published book,
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/B9780123751423100094). For
the moment it may be more safe to just skip it in the SVN.

YA
