First off, you should watch closely the messages that show up during the bootstrap. The last phase is "Building Maven with itself". You obviously need plugins for that. And IMO you should not download the plugins in binary form for that, because it would not be a bootstrap at all! The current bootstrap process builds the plugins locally, installs them into the local repository and uses them for the final phase of bootstraping. You should bite into Maven's maven.xml and build-bootstrap.xml to get the details of the proces. I never had a nerve to do it myslef :-) R. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
