Yep,

In 2015 I was assigned a task of adding some columns and rows to the windows update DB for a new feature. Nobody in our group really understood that part of the code very well. After investigating I realized that we were using a very early subset/fork of what became the jet blue engine. Apparently a long time ago a precursor to ESE was pulled into the project and over the years... the maintainers retired or left to work elsewhere. It was some of the ugliest (and very difficult to understand) code I've ever seen.

update: I left that group around the time of Redstone 2 so I'm not sure what became of it. I believe after I left they may have started using the actual ESE but I'm not sure.
