I just checked out GF v3 trunk and trying to build gives this error
while building ee apis:

Missing:
----------
1) javax.activation:activation:jar:1.0.2

[snip]

  Path to dependency:
        1) org.glassfish.common:glassfish-ee-api:hk2-jar:10.0-SNAPSHOT
        2) javax.javaee:javaee:jar:5.0-SNAPSHOT
        3) javax.xml.soap:saaj-api:jar:1.3
        4) javax.activation:activation:jar:1.0.2


I think the root of the problem is that saaj-1.3.jar is hosted at two
different places. One at java.net maven1 repo that depends on
activation-1.1.jar[1]. There is another saaj-1.3.jar[2] at
repo1.maven.org and that depends on activation-1.0.2.jar,except for the
fact that there is no activation-1.0.2.jar in maven.

During build saaj-1.3.api is resolved from the one at repo1.maven.org
and tries to find activation-1.0.2.jar and fails!

Does anyone know how we can fix this?
