The build is working for me right now; and there are several build bots
(such as hudson) which you can look at to see if the build is working.

You may of noticed the occasionaly email (one was sent yesterday) asking
you to build with -u
ie....
mvn clean install -u
This will fetch a new copy of the geoapi SNAPSHOT jars (and any other
SNAPSHOT jars); because ParameterGroup is is a geoapi class I am
recommending this.

no.

common things to miss:
- maven version; 2.0.9
- the correct version; use -u to fetch the latest SNAPSHOT
- java version: we are using Java 5 right now; often you will have
errors if you are using Java 6 ...
- Are JAI and ImageIO installed into your JDK (our build process is
mostly okay now; but if you are building an older version of GeoTools
this may be a problem)
