Can you describe this further? Seems like you could just add that
extra dependency in the project descriptor dependencies. Is it not
that simple?
That's the "hands off" part about the Ant vs. Maven debate that makes
Maven worth the effort. With Ant, even in the case where the nightly
is built on apache hardware, someone still has to go in and touch the
build. With Maven, just add a <dependency> to project.xml and check
it in.

I don't know enough (yet) about the layout of Shale and it's build
structure to give advice on this. But hopefully I'll get some time
today and see what I can do.

Below is the console output when I run 'maven' from current/shale/
Even though it says 'successful', I don't think the build actually
happened, given the failed downloads.

It is not, unfortunately. :) Shale has to build against either the JSF
Reference Implementation (which is not available on ibiblio) or MyFaces
(which is). This has to be user-selectable at build time. Currently it
works by specifying the two .jar files, (see build.properties.sample) which
I then manually add to the relevant classpath before compilation, then copy
them into the usecases app. But that's already broken since MyFaces wants a
third .jar file.
Since the build "knows" what dependencies it has, if you just tell me you
want myfaces, maybe with
maven.shale.jsf.myfaces=true
then I don't see a problem with the build knowing what version and using
${maven.repo.local} to go find the files it wants. (There is 'maven -p
myfaces-project.xml' to do the download if necessary.)
The RI is more complicated... it could be anywhere. A Maven user would
typically go ahead and install it into their local repository, but under
what groupId? Still, this should be solvable with some combination of
user-specified properties and scripting.

The easiest thing to do is to build it locally and jar:install -- I think
the Maven "fix" for this is to publish a SNAPSHOT for Tiles and have Shale
depend on that.

... doesn't seem to be on ibiblio, maybe it's in a different repository?
Otherwise it needs a <url> and will have to be downloaded manually. I'll
find it and add that info.
And from there, core-library didn't build, so nothing else is going to work.
Thanks for taking a look at it!
