Hey Florian, Thanks! I'm glad to help out however I can. I thought maybe I'd work on getting the unit tests to work. So, I checked out the 2.8 branch -- looks like I should have gone for either the stripes or jcr branch instead. I also just noticed that the package listed in the test report attached to the JIRA is the new org.apache.wiki.* package -- obviously not a match with 2.8. code base.
I wonder if I'm looking at the right Subversion repository? It seems from JIRA that there isn't much to do prior to releasing a v 3.0 alpha release. Is there another branch somewhere that I'm missing?
