[cross-project-issues-dev] Anyone (still) using BCEL?

Hi,

Object Teams is facing problems after the platform's move to Java 8,
because our traditional bytecode weaver is based on BCEL 5.2, which
cannot handle Java 8 bytecode.

While we have a new ASM-based weaver about ready for prime-time,
I would love to keep the BCEL-based weaver as an option.
(They do have some fundamentally different properties).

Are any other Eclipse projects are (still) using BCEL?
I can see that BCEL has fixed the problem in their code.
While a BCEL 6.0 release is dragging over many months now,
maybe we could adopt their latest release candidate into Orbit?

Anyone to join forces?
Has there been precedent of packaging a non-final release in Orbit?

regards,
Stephan
