Hi Andreas,
We contacted you regarding snipmatch. We are 
considering your idea of not re-writing the code and are just going 
ahead with making the changes as enlisted in the project proposal. We 
have been trying to build the code recommenders project. We were able to
 compile the code through terminal and import it on eclipse.
But while importing snipmatch we encountered the following error :
Description    Resource    Path    Location    Type
Plugin
 execution not covered by lifecycle configuration: 
org.fornax.toolsupport:fornax-oaw-m2-plugin:3.4.0:run-workflow 
(execution: default, phase: generate-sources)    pom.xml    
/org.eclipse.recommenders.templates    line 20    Maven Project Build 
Lifecycle Mapping Problem
Also on one of the comps while compiling the
 code recommenders code the tests are failing. The exact error that we 
are getting is the following :
