Hi all,

I found a paper from 2009 that indicates that the author was working in New
Zealand at that time.  Have you tried that address ?

  http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2202/10/S1/S3

Another solution is to contact the cufflinks authors and as them if they can
help or replace locfit.

We can definitely upload to non-free in the meantime.

Have a nice day,
