Good thought Chuck,

I checked and the app I was testing and it has direct connect disabled. I 
guess somehow deep in the bowels of WO it just expects the duplication to 
be there. And, as you say, perhaps it is tolerated because you might at 
some point want to turn on Direct Connect mode to test something. Still 
seems a bit shaky but maybe that's all there is to it.

Thanks for the tip,
-- Aaron

bundle?



I _thought_ they were only needed on the Java side for development builds 
and with Direct Connect.  I'd guess they are included in the .woa as it is 
possible to run the app in Direct Connect mode.
