Nope, it was a bug. Thanks for the report. There is a fix now in CVS which
fixes this immediate problem and a bug reported for the bigger issue of not
being able to retrieve objects other than Topics and Associations by
ResourceID.
HOWEVER: part of this fix required a change to the TopicMap interface, which
means that the Ozone implementation needs updating now as well, so only
update if you are using the in-memory implementation.

It varies quite a lot - mostly depending on work. It also depends to some
extent on getting quality bug reports such as you have provided - otherwise
its easy to get complacent and think that the job is done ;-). I'm now
freelancing, so hopefully that should provide me with a little extra time to
work on TM4J than I have had recently.

Cheers,

Kal
