IMHO that's exactly the problem (or the point of view) which I encoutered also: If you make changes to the actual trunk or if you like to test the latest committed patch in whatever bundle, where not the most recent bundle is refered in the pom of launchpad/bundles, you test something older with the launchpad app. My workaround is, that I patch the poms of launchpad/bundles and launchpad/app. I think there should be an easier way for developers to use the latest code base. best regards mike
