Difficult, the issues are too diverse.

Let's look at them case by case

>> [EMAIL PROTECTED]: webwork/webwork failed

At least one missing dependcy.  We just build this project as a
detector for some Apache projects.  I doubt that they are aware that
Gump is building the project.

>> [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mx4j/mx4j-tools-from-packaged-jetty failed

The top item on my TODO list.  A real API compatibility problem
between mx4j and Axis.

>> [EMAIL PROTECTED]: freemarker/freemarker failed

Uses old jdom API.  Same as webwork.

>> [EMAIL PROTECTED]: jakarta-tapestry/ognl failed

Tapestry is a problem in itself, since the Gump descriptor is inside
the tapestry module.  A manual nag together with a patch to the
descriptor may help.  Number two on my TODO list, helping hands
welcome 8-)

>> [EMAIL PROTECTED]: javasrc/javasrc failed

Nag!

>> [EMAIL PROTECTED]: xml-xerces/xml-xerces1 failed

Simply needs 1.4.2_04 on LSD, not a problem with the project.

>> [EMAIL PROTECTED]: jakarta-turbine-tdk/jakarta-turbine-tdk-docs failed

Odd.  Works fine on gump.covalent.net.  We should work this out before
we nag anybody.

>> [EMAIL PROTECTED]: eyebrowse/eyebrowse failed

Missing Mysql JDBC driver.  Similar to webwork (they don't know what
we are doing with their project).

>> [EMAIL PROTECTED]: castor/castor failed

Missing <work> entry.  Similar to webwork, but this time we really
need to build it since some of "our" projects (jetspeed, pluto) depend
on it.

>> [EMAIL PROTECTED]: jrefactory/jrefactory failed

See webwork.  It would probably suffice to turn the pretty printer it
into an installed package.

>> [EMAIL PROTECTED]: jgen/jgen failed

Hasn't upgraded to later released versions of FOP in years (looks more
or less dead[1]), will probably never build.  Only project that
depends on it is Turbine 3 which itself hasn't built since years.
Could be turned into an installed package.

On the other hand it is quite possible that they've never been told
that jgen doesn't build against any recent FOP version.  We could ask
the FOP people for advice and send a patch to the jgen list to bring
them up to FOP 0.20.5.  Low on my personal priority list.
