Ross,Ah, ha! That's the problem. I never specified the directory location in the required plugins line. You put: project.required.plugins.src=${forrest.home}/plugins,${forrest.home}/whiteboard/plugins

I guess if I add a project.required.plugins.src line the location map would grab the appropriate source. I didn't see that line in any of my seeded projects.
No need to specifically add it. If a property is missing from your local forrest.properties file the default.forrest.properties entry is used, i.e. that copied above.
I added the above line explicitly to a forrest.properties file and tried running the dispatcher without building the whiteboard plugins. I got a locatiommap error. This doesn't seem to happen when using a non-dispatcher configuration. I've not tried this with j-random plugins from whiteboard/plugins.
Thanks for doing some testing on this. I've been trying to find the time to establish if this is a dispatcher specific problem or a more general problem with plugin autodeploy.
I've linked this thread to the issue so we don't lose your valuable comments.
