Hi Nicolas,

Webmaster had restored my access rights to development server and I
published QVTo M4 build. I updated 'm2m-qvtoml.b3aggrcon' with this build
for Juno and aggregation build was ok (
https://hudson.eclipse.org/hudson/job/juno.runAggregator/189/).

So QVTo normally joined Juno sim.release train. In nearest days I'm going
to take up other formal steps for Juno (
http://wiki.eclipse.org/SimRel/Simultaneous_Release_Requirements).

Regards,
  Sergey
