[kepler-dev] Problem building Kepler

Christopher, Bertram, and others:

    The primary problem that I know about is related to the cloning 
issue that has been discussed the last few days.

    When using the CVS release of PT, Kepler throws a bunch of errors 
whenever a new Graph panel is built (i.e. when a workflow is opened). 
This is due to Kepler building the actor tree. It is due to Java 
variable names not agreeing with the Port name string. Currently, I 
think there are only 3 or 4 actors where we haven't fixed the problem 
and they all have dynamic port creation. I think that they do NOT get 
added to the actor list due to this problem. Chad may have more details 
on which actors have the problem.
