[BioC] using GSEAlm with GO geneSetCollections

Hi Mark,
  There is no direct way to do that (at least not that I can think of). Perhaps
the easiest thing to do, is to do an unconditional test, with no filtering on
p-values (or anything else).  Then separately find all leaves, and then just
subset the results for the leaves and work off of that.

 best wishes
   Robert
