Hi Ross,
Still seems something is wrong - either in dependencies or my
environment; not sure which.  Below is my output.

--tim

It seems that the downloading of the dependencies was commented out in
the ivyconf.xml file.  I uncommented the two ivyrep elements and teh
ibiblio element and got a little further.

My next problem was a java version issue.  The code needs Java 1.5 - I
suspect because of generics/templates/whatever-java-calls-it.

I'm not sure if there are other implications for what I've done to
ivyconf.xml but maybe this will help other folks get further along.  I
reckon if we really want these commented out, we should add the
necessary dependencies to the local repo?  I'm learning Ivy on the fly
from what you've got here so I don't really know what I'm talking
about;)

Thanks,
--tim
