[Bioc-devel] Possible DNS issue?

[Pages, Herve]

Hi Damian,

Looks like today the problem went away and that STRINGdb 2.2.0 is now 
available on all platforms. We should still keep an eye on this for a 
few more days though so we get an idea of whether this is intermittent 
or gone for good.

Cheers,
H.
