Thanks to all to pointing out that I was making an incorrect statement about "all files changed". I made two errors: First, I forgot that we did a special rebuild, for someone, so the "very last build" had a set of URL's that were not original, but pointed to "what we had already", while we rebuilt for that one project. If I correct for that, there were about 45 files that changed -- really, 35 projects did not change at all? Lucky you! But that is a lot of "sleepers". :) Just kidding about project's sleeping. What I was *trying* to do was see if any projects were basically "defunct" ... or had really "lost communication" with the Train's dates ... but turns out that I can not do that by looking at the files.
My second mistake (sort of) was counting "any change" as a change, whereas some them, such as GEF, were simply to change their URL to their permanent one, but no actual change in content. So, that might mean even fewer than 45 did, but, as some used to remind me, some project's have their b3aggrcon files specified so loose, they could change their content a lot, and never change the file, so looking at the file is a bad idea all the way around. [That is, one reason why we "changed the rule" so that the files need to be more specific for Neon]. Apologies for the noise that minor comment made -- but I learned (or, was reminded) of a lot.

Sent by: [email protected] Hi David, I was wondering about your first statement also, as GEF is not contributing something new to Mars.2 either (we are fully concentrating on our 4.0.0 release for Neon). Our contribution to Mars.2 should be the same as that to Mars, and as far as I can see that is indeed the case.

(i.e. no projects are just sleeping and forgot to update :) You might want to review your query. qvtd.b3aggrcon was last changed by me on 26 June, and by you on 14 July. We are certainly not sleeping, and did not forget to update. Just working very hard to support the functionality required for graduation to 1.0.0. And ... worst of all, IMHO, some "old" third party jars are still being used, which implies to me someone is not using the latest version of Orbit (R20151221205849). But if a project has no maintenance to contribute, I thought no rebuild/contribution was required and so of course an old Orbit would be in use. (I don't think that QVTd imposes tight bounds on Orbit contributions.)
