The update tool (on mirror system that does have net) tells me the following update is available and I am wondering where I can download the file(s) from and what is the best way to deploy them manually. I was thinking I could make a copy of my GFV3_HOME and then run the update tool on the mirror and diff the files to create the patch set then copy those by hand into the other installation and clean out the osgi cache directory. Is there a better way? Thanks,
