[BioC] Question about using lumi package

[Pan Du]

Hi Xin

The lumi package basically calls "methylumiR" function in methylumi
package to import Infinium methylation file. The format of Infinium
450k data is the same as 27k data. I remember there is an example file
in methylumi package.  Please check it. If you have Illumina
GenomeStudio or Beadstudio software, you should get the output easily.
But please remember to output the intensity of ProbeA (methylated) and
ProbeB (unmethylated), which are required for data normalization.
