Thanks Ignacio

I updated this in the 'devel' branch of Bioconductor, available with the 
devel version of R. Look for package version 1.31.1 in the next couple 
of days.

This package has not been actively maintained for several release 
cycles, and there are a number of suspicious 'notes' when run through R 
CMD check.

arrayQualityMetrics is very actively maintained. I recommend that you 
use arrayQualityMetrics instead, even if it does not provide exactly the 
same functionality.
