Hi Harald Thanks for that!
If the testcase was intended to be a stand-alone test of published versions of Spring, I'd certainly exploit cacheing in the local Maven repository for efficiency. But we plan to integrate the testcase into the Spring build in due course ([1]) and so we'll want to grab the latest built version each time to cope with re-spins, so I'll avoid caching the Spring bundles for now. That certainly wasn't clear from the project, so I've added some text to the README. I have however adopted your suggestion for the EBR dependencies though as cacheing does make sense in that case. That also helps as I've blogged about the project ([2]) and it is now a more useful example for others.
