Hello, I have been able to build continuum project (trunk) with maven 3. Only hurdle there was the dependency on a whole set of projects under com.atlassian.xmlrpc (version 0.11) which I got from this repo - http://repo.npanday.org/3rdparty/com/atlassian/xmlrpc (Thanks to whoever is maintaining this one).
Thanks all. Murali.
