Eric: Thanks - but for the moment I will go with Jambunathan's suggestion and stick with the latest version before the removal of BABEL.
For the record, I created a local branch before the removal of BABEL and used
git checkout MyBranch
to switch to this branch. So I can keep my local git repo up-to-date and switch back to master if I want to.
Cheers,
Rainer
Rainer - if he feels uncomfortable - can choose *not* to update his git
repo and switch his local checkout to a historical version.
