Hi Steve,
Note sure what you are trying to do here but source and javadoc dependencies are not defined to be added as dependencies. Instead they are used by tools like m2eclipse [1] that download them whenever you access a class of one of your dependency. M2eclipse is really convenient, you should try it.
