I do use JTestR with Buildr for my current employer's build system. We have RSpec / JRuby tests mixed with JUnit4 tests in projects, and JTestR is the only test framework I am aware of that can run all tests together, given that only one test framework can be activated per project AFAIK.
I am willing to spend some of my off-work hours to help. I am also on the JTestR mailing list so I am aware that Ola responded to Alex that he did not have time to move JTestR to RSpec 2. Maybe I should start on that end? Alex - if there is anything specific I need to know about this JTestR dependency issues, please let me know.

I note in favor of removing it: I ported an ant script that used jtestr to buildr a long time ago. At first I tried using buildr's jtestr support, but it didn't work how I expected. I switched to buildr's built-in rspec support and things were much smoother. So that's a possible transition path to suggest to folks (if any) who are using jtestr+buildr. Rhett
