Mark,

Thanks for the tip, but turning lenient geometry matching on does not
really help, now about half of my polygons are marked updated and others
unchanged--right after initial loading when no modifications are done in
geodatabase. And I see no pattern why some features are routed into
unchanged and others into updated port of UpdateDetector transformer.

But I am more interested in getting the domains resolved. Has anybody
successfully resolved subtype-dependent domains from ESRI geodatabase?
