Yes, it was up to date, although it used newer versions of some libs that
had to be added to maven repo (I added a comment to bugzilla asking about
this yesterday). However, I have tried it using the current versions and
it has worked (I don't understand why it didn't yesterday), so I will
attach a new patch to the bugzilla. I think there is only one missing lib,
so I'll attach it as well. I can also add it to the repo if you want.

Paloma
