So building 2.0 has not gone well.  There are no valid instructions

$ svn checkout http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/velocity/engine/trunk
velocity-master
$ cd velocity-master
$ mvn

However, almost all the velocity-core test cases fail, which does not
inspire confidence.

I must admit that I stopped doing anything on Velocity/Tools after trunk
went to using Maven. I can't figure out how to build it in Eclipse, so
it's currently dead to me :(

Granted, that's my own failure, but given that Velocity 2.0 developed
seemed to have stalled long ago, it seemed like sticking with Velocity
1.7 wasn't a big problem.

Chris,

Kind of off topic but ya I am no Maven fan.  Dependency hell does exist, but I 
have never thought maven was the answer.  Give me
a plain old ant script any day.  Does ASF require its projects to use it?
