How did you install/update the plugin? The 0.2.0 release of the plugin
does not have that datestamp (20090618007). Try re-installing the plugin
from the stable update site:

http://download.eclipse.org/technology/linuxtools/update

If the problem still persists, try rebuilding opxml by following these
instructions:

Let me know how it goes, thanks for trying out the plugin :)
