[news.eclipse.modeling.amalgam] Re: Xpand file error?

[Richard Gronback <richard.gronback@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm afraid the errors are "normal" for this build, using the original Xpand
(which doesn't support URI-based imports, btw).  The GMF-based Xpand has
much improved the situation in the current release train.

The workflow file wizard provides no default content.  As both the newer
GMF-based Xpand and QVT both support Ant invocation, there is little need
for these files when using the current release train.

Sorry for the bad news.

Best,
Rich
