Why did you close my p2 bug as INVALID?

Have you used p2?  Have you tried to replace plug-in with an updated version, only to find p2  doesn’t find it?  Have you removed an unused plug-in and suddenly Eclipse stopped working?

You’ve probably not only hit these issues, but as a responsible member of the Eclipse community you even filed a  bug about it, thanks.  Why then, did the p2 team close your bug as INVALID?

Join Pascal and I on Tuesday and learn about the 10  most common pitfalls Eclipse developers face when using p2; and more importantly, learn how to avoid them!
