What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Ubuntu 9.04, Java 6 64bit - likely affects all OSes

Please provide any additional information below.
The removal of the gwt plugin in my locally downloaded pom, as well as the
gwt deps fixed the build problem, will investigate if there are other issues.

Thanks for the library

I'm not using maven any more, but if you look at the docs at 
http://mojo.codehaus.org/gwt-maven-plugin/ you might find out how to keep the 
plugin enabled.

Go ahead and send me the new pom.xml without or without the mavenplugin and I 
can stick it in there for others' benefit.
