No converter.war with 7.0.2?

Is this by design? Does RM no longer need converter.war for graphical artifacts?

for the record, all of the 7.0.2 documentation still references the application, but when I downloaded the package from Jazz.net and installed, it's not preset in the webapp directory.

This actually disappeared quite some time ago - initially it was installed but not enabled, and then it was completely removed.

The current drawing surface in the RM app no longer needs it.

Thank you! I skipped version 7.0.1, but this was still bundled with version 7.0 when I deployed earlier this year. Good to know it is no longer required.

Wow! I actually thought it was physically removed earlier than that - had no idea they still shipped it as late as 7.0

"The graphical editor browser add-on has been removed in 6.0.3 in favor of the HTML-based Diagram Editor. For DNG 6.0.3 and later, if you are not migrating from an earlier version, or if you do not need to view graphical artifacts created with the graphical editor browser add-on, then the converter application is not required."

It's all about the answers!
