Hi all,
 It's my first time trying to develop my own component per this page:
 
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/WritingComponents
 I ran the maven create component steps as follows:
   C:\dev\xwiki\xwiki-enterprise-2.5-rc-1> mvn install:install-file
   -Dfile="C:/Downloads/xwiki-archetype-component-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar"
   -DartifactId=xwiki-archetype-component
   -DgroupId=com.xpn.xwiki.platform.tools -Dversion=1.0-SNAPSHOT
   -Dpackaging=jar
   . . .
   C:\dev\xwiki\xwiki-enterprise-2.5-rc-1>mvn archetype:generate
   -DarchetypeGroupId=com.xpn.xwiki.platform.tools
   -DarchetypeArtifactId=xwiki-archetype-component
   -DarchetypeVersion=1.0-SNAPSHOT
   -DgroupId=com.modusoperandi.xwiki.extentions
   -DartifactId=xwiki-marktest  -Dpackage=com.modusoperandi.xwiki.ext
   -Dversion=0.1 -Dpackaging=jar
   . . .
 Now I have an xwiki-marktest project.
 Had to comment out the "1.8-SNAPSHOT" property value, making my pom.xml look
like this:
   C:\dev\xwiki\xwiki-enterprise-2.5-rc-1\xwiki-marktest>   type pom.xml
   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

   <!-- Add here all your other dependencies -->
   </dependencies>
   </project>
 But when I try to compile I get the "Failure to find..." error shown below.
   C:\dev\xwiki\xwiki-enterprise-2.5-rc-1\xwiki-marktest>mvn compile

 What do I do now?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
