Hi Trip,

I'm also trying to build VTP following your steps and ran into the following
errors at step 4:  http://pastebin.com/Axw6MCMS

Before this step I did a clean install of Eclipse 3.7 RCP package, installed
Subversive and its optional plugins, then installed Buckminster, before pulling
down the buckminster project from SVN.

Any thoughts on what might be wrong?

Many thanks,
Kevin Smith
