[BioC] Is anyone developing an extensible Galaxy-like interface for Bioconductor?

[Oleg Sklyar]

Before you invest too much time yourself, have a look at BioCep, which 
is essentially a web-based interface to R, Bioconductor and much much 
more. http://biocep-distrib.r-forge.r-project.org/ I have no idea in 
which state is BioCep at the moment, but I have seen it working...

Best,
Oleg
