[Bioc-devel] new download stats

[Luo Weijun]

Hi Dan and Hervé,
Thank you for the special attention and quick action. I agree the the bioc project need updates/additions all the time. Some stability or back-compatibility as you guys did would make the project greater.

 I made the old url work for now, just for your
 package...until we can decide what to do about this. 
 It's just a copy of the file at http://bioconductor.org/packages/stats/bioc/pathview.html
 , with the url paths adjusted,
 it won't be updated the next time the scripts are run, but
 hopefully by then we will have a solution in place.
