Hi Tom,

Thanks for your message! Just as an FYI, your messages are getting through. One 
way to check is that you can visit any of the public archives for Apache 
projects, specifically you can find the OODT ones here [1] or here [2]. A lot 
of times I just Google and I can find them (b/c the archives are publicly 
indexed). So good job, you've got them through! :)

Now, onto some help below...

Thanks for the heads up, here. Several OODT devs and users seem to be 
experiencing this too. Basically it has to do with the quality of the external 
dependency provider. In r1023552 [3] I added an external repository to the 
oodt/core/pom.xml file so that oodt/pushpull would build (it has an external 
dependency on Cog JGlobus for one of its FTP providers in the protocol layer). 
I think that this particular repository may be causing some issues for folks 
who don't already have a local copy of the jar files downloaded by Maven. 

The nice thing is like some other folks have pointed out, once you get the 
jars, you don't need to download them again, but one quick workaround might be 
to femove that repository from your local checkout of oodt/core/pom.xml in the 
repo definition section. If you do that, and your build speeds up, we can file 
an issue in JIRA to maybe remove that repo and find a more reliable provider

Yep. The 0.1-incubating version of OODT relied on the latest version of Tika at 
the time (0.8-SNAPSHOT) because were kind of in between Tika releases. When I 
pushed the Tika 0.8 official release out, the Maven snapshots repository at 
Apache ceased to have that snapshot. 

Dave Kale fixed this in the latest trunk version (0.2-incubating) in OODT-59 
[4], so you could grab the latest trunk version from SVN by doing the following:

1. svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/oodt/trunk ./oodt
2. cd oodt
3. execute build process as normal

Or, alternatively you could just grab the patch for OODT-59 and apply it 
locally to your checkout. Either way should work fine.

> * hsqldb-1.8.0.7

I think Justin mentioned that he found this dependency in a different 
repository, but I actually found it in Maven Central, here [5]. I'm wondering 
if you ran into some intermittent network connectivity issue with Maven 
Central. Can you check [5] and see if that works for you Tom?

Wow, for being new to Maven (and Tika likely) you did a great job working 
around this! :)

Gotcha. Yep try grabbing the dependency from [5] (or see if Maven will download 
it for you now -- it should automatically check Maven Central).

HTH!

Cheers,
