Description

I depend on apache ftpserver for my tests. But somehow since 3.0-beta-1 the transitive apache mina dependency is not available in the test classpath any more

See the provided project. This code works on maven 2.x and also worked with 3.x versions until 3.0-alpha-7. But with beta 1 this build fails with class not found.

Apache Maven 3.0-beta-1 (r935667; 2010-04-19 19:00:39+0200)
