Guys I'm still well in the newbie class but with a couple of weeks now just
playing with sculptor examples etc. I am impressed with the product and am
certain it has a bright future. Also looking forward to extending it etc 

Whats surprised me though is the number of problems I've had in trying to
trial the product and while I think the documentation is excellent I'd
suggest that some effort is given to providing new adopters with a 'stable'
ie. non-snapshot version of the product with which to learn and come up to
speed. 

For example (as per previous posting I've had dramas with rogue dependecies
in mvn repo as followintg Patrik's suggestion I've just blown away entire
maven repo and done mvn install on a small app I've (sculpted as per the
archetype tutorial). All looked to be going great with heaps being
redownoaded etc until the build complained it was unable to find:

org.springframework.webflow:org.springframework.faces:jar:2.0.7.RELEASE

I look in mvn central and within the fornax repo but no sign of it in there
- only this:

    * 2.0.0.RELEASE/
    * 2.0.1.RELEASE/
    * 2.0.2.RELEASE/
    * 2.0.3.RELEASE/
    * 2.0.4.RELEASE/
    * 2.0.5.RELEASE/
    * maven-metadata-central.xml
    * maven-metadata-central.xml.md5
    * maven-metadata-central.xml.sha1
    * maven-metadata.xml
    * maven-metadata.xml.md5
    * maven-metadata.xml.sha1

Does this mean I need to know how to grab that dependency from somewhere
else??

Note there's also a few others that aren't found, including:

com.sun.faces:com.springsource.com.sun.faces:jar:1.2.0.09
org.jboss.el:com.springsource.org.jboss.el:jar:2.0.0.GA

etc

Does this mean I should be including a few other repositories on my search
path or manually installing from those repos (as per the mvn error message
when the build fails)? eg. maybe including a spring repo and a jboss repo
???
