Thanks for the tip, but it didn't quite work.. i wasn't sure if you meant that i should delete just the RELEASE value/element or the entire file.. i did both but neither worked, the value/file just came right back.. what did seem to work was replacing the RELEASE value with '1.0-alpha-3', the version that matched the repository on ibiblio.
i'm not sure if this is what you were asking me to do or not, and if not, if that means that this is a different bug, but that got me a little BUILD SUCCESSFUL message, so i'm happy for tonight.. thanks again.. Saleem. p.s. someone might want to put a little note on the Getting Started page that explains this workaround in case anyone else has any problems..
