[BioC] annotation db for miRNA_2 Array

Oops sorry, I should have read that more carefully.  A miRNA package 
will not be possible (using the tool that I pointed to) unless you 
actually have a mapping to relevant genes.  The problem is more 
difficult because your probes are not measuring genes (which are units 
that annotations are more traditionally attached to).  To get 
annotations for a platform like this will either require an association 
with genes or some other source of prior knowledge about these miRNAs.

Sorry for the confusion,


   Marc
