We don't re-release prior artifacts. To incorporate any new fixes, you'd have to create a GEP 2.1.4 release.

BTW - There will be a 2.1.4 Server release sometime in 4Q08 or 1Q09, as there have been several useful/important fixes since 2.1.3 and several JIRAs that need to be addressed for users who don't want to move to 2.2 right away.....

--------------------------------------------

Thanks for bug report.  I fixed it in trunk with rev 701571.  We would like to 
work better in p2, and have had some issues with it.

I don't know if we will do a 2.1.4.  Currently trunk is targeted to 2.2.

I wonder if we could or should fix this in 2.1.3 and put new artifacts on our 
eclipse plugin update site?

Feature.properties has a trailing backslash in it

                Key: GERONIMODEVTOOLS-522
                URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMODEVTOOLS-522
            Project: Geronimo-Devtools
         Issue Type: Bug
         Components: eclipse-plugin
   Affects Versions: 2.1.3
           Reporter: Charles Overbeck
           Assignee: Tim McConnell

The feature.properties on the update site bundled with 
org.apache.geronimo.v21.feature_2.1.3.jar has a trailing backslash in it. The 
last two lines of the file are this:
trial in any resulting litigation. \n\
\n\ Note the trailing slash at the end of the second line; no characters follow it. This may not sound like a terrible bug on its own, but because that content ends up getting expanded inside the feature.xml, I think it escapes the next character in the feature.xml, which in this case is the "<" which closes a tag. This leads to an incorrectly generated content.xml file if you are generating an update site using Eclipse's P2 metadata generator, and you have the Geronimo feature present when you are doing the metadata generation. I don't know if it has any other side-effects.
In any case, that's why I'm proposing a priority of Major for this seeming 
trivial bug.
