[BioC] XML package - 500 internal server error

[Sean Davis]

Hi, Maciej.

I believe the XML package is available.  I tried the link in your
error message and it appeared to work just fine now.  Perhaps try
again?  If trying again does not work, paste the code you are using to
do the installation and the error message (so we can see what code
results in the error).
