I'm still importing, so it's too soon to tell. Yes, I know that the builds can break, although I would hope our core modules (cayenne runtime & modeler) would be stable by this point, with no checkins breaking compilability. I expecdt JPA to be in a state of flux at present and don't necessarily expect the same level of usability.
However, I think the main issue is that we need to get the developer guide updated with more details. That's part of what I'm hoping will come out of this process. Thanks for the module list below. It's difficult to tell which modules are important, especially if you're not familiar with maven naming conventions. This should go in the developer guide. In fact, I'd like to see an enumeration of each module with a description of what it does and how it fits in to the big picture. No doubt there's a maven plugin somewhere that will do this automatically :-) I also think the the description should indicate whether it's intended to be a java 1.4 or 1.5 target. Actually, I can't seem to figure out how to update the developer guide. I'd still like to hear answers on some of the procedural questions I asked before (and I'll add them to the dev guide): 1) Is it intended/necessary that the svn checkout be outside of the workspace? 2) How does one work with both a 1.4 and a 1.5 workspace at the same time?

I can feel your pain. I didn't have any problems specifically with Eclipse, but the builds do break often. To access the bulk of the code you just need one or more of these modules in Eclipse. They can be imported one at a time in any order. Don't waste your time on importing the build plugin, tutorials and such. * cayenne-jdk1.4-unpublished * cayenne-jdk1.5-unpublished * cayenne-jpa-unpublished * cayenne-modeler Are any of them still causing trouble?
