[jbosstools-dev] Xulrunner downgraded for x64 in repository.jboss.org

[Max Rydahl Andersen]

Max, thanks for the info.

The JBDS 64bit build we will mark as experimental so ok we use the 1.8.1.4 for that.

If relevant we will upgrade in 2.1.x so things are in sync, but for now there is no known issues with this
and I dont want to hold back GA for fixing this.
