Hardcoded outdated Biomart database? #83

Line 1129 fails, when running SAKE due to the hard-coded archive being gone (the page for it leads to "The Ensembl Archive you tried to reach is not available. You can go to one of the other available archives:").

ensembl = useMart(biomart="ENSEMBL_MART_ENSEMBL", host="jul2016.archive.ensembl.org", path="/biomart/martservice" ,dataset="hsapiens_gene_ensembl")

For my run of the tool, I edited the code to
ensembl = useMart(biomart="ENSEMBL_MART_ENSEMBL", path="/biomart/martservice" ,dataset="hsapiens_gene_ensembl")

Which, I guess, is not ideal for reproducibility, unless latest/default useMart version is recorded separately. However using the older database may also negatively impact the analysis. Would it be possible to just update a code for trying to pull the latest version or give choice to the user, from which archive to pull the database?
