Hi Rob,
I had this exact problem when I recently tried to build the sources. I
found this comment in the pom for the validator module which helped me
solve the problem:
<!--
The POM of
org.iso_relax.verifier.jaxp.validation:isorelax-jaxp-bridge:jar:1.0
on the central repo is not 4.0.0 complaint so that we should pick the
one SMX
Repo already provides, as otherwise building under Maven 3.0.4 would
fail!
So delete any old .m2 cache entries of yours for this artifact
beforehand if
you make use of Maven 3.0.4+
-->
As it says, I deleted the jar out of my .m2 repository and then built the
validator module first, then built the rest and it worked.
