[BioC] CRANrepository is not a repository or some http problem

[Kasper Daniel Hansen]

I have (basically) the same error.

If you have followed the mailing list you will notice that the website 
is being moved at the moment. I am guessing that we have some problems 
obtaining the BioC copy of CRAN.

Since rankProduct is a standard R package and since (ok I am 
guessing) the BioC version of CRAN is do, install.packages2 cannot find 
rankProduct.

Solution:
1) wait 'till it get fixed
2) use install.packages instead as it will connect directly to CRAN.
