Dear Lutz,

Thanks for this interesting information. On my side, it seems the URL is 
not working, as shown below :

[julien at minerva]/home/julien#host gforge.enseeiht.fr 
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached


Is it a temporary problem or the URL is wrong ? Maybe it is also from my 
connection but other sites seem to work fine.

All,

A new snapshot release for OSATE2 is now available for download at
http://gforge.enseeiht.fr/projects/osate2/

We are planning to make new snapshot releases available periodically,
about once per month. You can subscribe to project RSS feeds to be 
informed
about their availability. 
See http://gforge.enseeiht.fr/export/rss_project.php?group_id=132

Sources are available at https://github.com/osate

An OSATE2 user forum is available at
http://gforge.enseeiht.fr/forum/?group_id=132

Please report bugs at
https://github.com/osate/osate2-core/issues


Release Notes:

This version of OSATE2 uses XText instead of a custom builder to parse 
AADL2.
The XText generated AADL text editor has many more features compared to 
OSATE1,
and AAXL files are no longer needed to process declarative AADL models.

OSATE2 makes use of project dependencies to find referenced packages in 
other 
projects.

A project 'Plugin_Resources' containing the standard property sets can be 
created
using the context menu of the project explorer view.

Instantiation of a model is done via the context menu in the text editor 
when
the cursor is inside a system implementation declaration or in the outline 
view.

If needed, it is possible to generate aaxl files from the context menu.

OSATE2 is now built using Tycho, which has two bugs that currently prevent 
us 
from building an OSX version.

Note: This release does not contain any analysis plugins.

Known issues:
- The AADL perspective does not work correctly
- Instantiation is incomplete w.r.t. 
  - properties (no list properties), 
  - connections (no processing of connection patterns), and 
  - flows (no flows for connection patterns).
- Cross file references in manually generated AAXL files are in a wrong 
format
- Some AADL editor features (code completion, templates) are still 
disabled 
  because of an issue with the XText code generator


Next steps:

We are focusing on implementing the following major features.
- Complete instantiation
- Analysis plugins
- Annex plugin interface
- Complete semantic checking
