Dear CDF package maintainer,

It appeared to me that the web site for Affymetrix Data Packages does =
not contain two packages corresponding to CDF files for two important =
chips namely:

DrosGenome1.CDF - this is the current Drosophila chip
ATH1-121501.CDF - this is a new Arabidopsis Chip released earlier this =
year.

Also:
Is there any way that the user can use the actual CDF file or is he now =
entirely dependent on the appropriate package being timely placed in the =
bioconductor web-site?

regards
Pawel
