Bad link on main github page for ggbio #110

There's a bad link on main github page for ggbio where it says "Please visit ggbio homepage for more tutorials and case studies." The phrase "ggbio homepage" has a link to the URL http://www.tengfei.name/ggbio . It doesn't give a 404 not found error as such; but it's effectively the same thing - a page that does not include any ggbio tutorials or case studies which looks like a boiler plate page from a domain provider or a web host provider or whatever, probably due to payment for their services not being kept up.

By the way, is ggbio still an ongoing project? I think I read in a response to one of the bug reports or support questions that it was being phased out; but I'm not sure what tool would be suitable to use instead since ggbio seems really useful,

Thanks, I've removed that link. I'm currently maintaining the project after it was abandoned by the original author, who I was supervising at the time. No new development is planned. At some point we might make a sequel.
