Thanks for the slides! I've actually done something very similar for  
the Drosophila 1.0R tiling array in terms of realigning probes and  
annotating as exon/ambiguous-exon (ie, an exon in only 1 isoform of a  
transcript)/intron/intergenic/etc. The only question I have is what  
did you then use to get it back into the expected CDF format for  
seamless use in Bioconductor?

Sorry if I'm missing something, but I haven't come across a way to  
create a custom cdf w/o affy's bpmap and cif files ... did you create  
your own bpmap from your annotations (or something)?

Thanks,
-steve
