I am currently evaluating Turbine 2.3 using the 2.3 TDK binary from http://kiasoft.com/~painter/tdk-2.3_20031210.tar.gz and created the sample app following the TDK Howto found at http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/tdk/tdk-howto.html.
I think, you can safely use the TDK binaries for evaluation and the development later, as there is no advantage over building it by your self, except more trouble. (correct me anyone if I am wrong here.) It will provide your students with a ready to go development environment, the only thing left is to install a mysql server somewhere.
All the required libs are already included in the binary version of the TDK, it comes with Tomcat4 and most stuff is already set up.
It is the best, if you start over by checking my original message again, downloading the binary TDK from one of the links there and following the TDK howto at http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/tdk/tdk-howto.html

So the statement on the website that 2.3 is the current production release is a little fib?
I downloaded 2.3 and followed the instructions in the README. (Incidentally, I previously downloaded the unofficial 2.3 and kept getting errors in the newapp I set up. I've since thrown that away, but I could redownload and rebuild if the consensus is that I should use the unofficial version.) Is 2.3 sufficiently different from 2.2 that if I get started in 2.2 I'll have issues when I try to migrate?
Anyway, I get pretty far in trying to build 2.3 using Maven, but there are some errors. I'm going to send a how-to I wrote describing exactly what I did (which, I suppose, someone could publish if I ever get everything working), and the error I got.
