This pull request is broken/not updated to use the new features in JBDS 7 to 
resolve files relative to the project where the cheatsheet is inside - which
is what we added to avoid these exact issues.

Yes, they are hardcoded.

no, the project name is still what is in the pom.xml file - the directory is called kitchensink.
Two different things :) ...unless you also renamed something in .project or pom.xml ?

Can you commmit the project that is not working into git somewhere I can take a look at ?

renaming a directory is not sufficient to change the project name normally so something else is going on.
