Ok, I can deal with change

One more question, to learn about and deal with the deprecated stuff

Is the file at the url below current, or out of date?

http://faculty.ucr.edu/~tgirke/Documents/R_BioCond/R_BioCondManual.html#BioC
primer

If it is out of date, is there a better url to catch up fast?
