[BioC] GWAS with family data

[Stephanie M. Gogarten]

Hi Naomi,

Just a word of caution on the GWASdata package - the case-control status 
for those samples is not real, I made it up for the GWASTools examples 
by randomly assigning case status to HapMap samples.

I'm afraid I don't have any advice on family studies - when I've done 
analyses with GWASTools I've selected only unrelated samples for the 
association tests, which is presumably not what you want to do for a 
family study.
