I tried to install Modest from http://modest.garage.maemo.org/

It offers to add the Modest Package Repository to the application manager. But when I just the list of sources it says "Modest Package Repository - failed to refresh" with a red x.

No amount of refreshing seems to fix it. the web address that it automatically added was "http://modest.garage.maemo.org/repos". Is this correct? am I missing something?
