I want to make vcf file to m3vcf file.

I tried to download minimac3, but it time out as shown below. Is there a problem with wiki minimac3 at the moment?

Thank you.

Downloading programs using the outdated FTP protocol might not work these days. To download a Linux binary, try replacing the leading ftp in the address with https:

wget https://share.sph.umich.edu/minimac3/Minimac3Executable.tar.gz

Or for the source code:

wget https://share.sph.umich.edu/minimac3/Minimac3.v2.0.1.tar.gz

I appreciate your response. Thank you !
