Issue with Spring 2.5 Extension available via JDeveloper Update Center

Question

Hi,
I am wondering if anybody has run into problems with the latest version of the Spring Plugin for Spring 2.5 available from the download centre. It looks to me like there is a packaging problem - here are the details:
I downloaded a fresh jdeveloper 10.1.3.3
Then did the update through "Help - Check for updates"
This shows an entry for "JDeveloper Spring Support 07.11.19.01"
When this is downloaded and JDeveloper restarted the only entry in manage libraries is "Spring 2.0"
The interesting thing then is that the corresponding plugin:
oracle.jdeveloper.spring2.07.11.19.01.jar
which is bundled inside
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/101/update/exchange.xml#oracle.jdeveloper.spring2
has a version number of "06.11.23.01"
and all of the paths referenced in extension.xml refer to:
${ide.extension.install.home}/spring-framework-2.0.1
for their classpath.
So it looks like that needs to be updated to take account of the new path.
Final point - it looks like the sourcecode for spring is not included in that distribution - would be great to get it put back in.
Regards,
pj.

Thank you,Dana.Have you update the file? I found there is still something wrong.
When I download the file from "http://download.oracle.com/otn/java/jdeveloper/10131/extensions/JDeveloperSpring2.zip
", and unzip the file.I found there is a file named "extension.xml" in the oracle.jdeveloper.spring2.07.11.19.01.jar, and I found something like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
<!-- The Version number here is the spring build date + and incremented extension no if we have to
expose more than one extension version for a single Spring version-->
<extension xmlns="http://jcp.org/jsr/198/extension-manifest"

So I think the spring 2.5 extension is not updated now.
Can you update the file? Thank you.
