I've tried out version 1.1 of the DITA2Confluence tool, using Confluence 2.9 on Windows Vista. For those who are interested, I've written a step-by-step guide to getting it up and running, and importing the sample docs into Confluence. It's easy and fun :) http://ffeathers.wordpress.com/2008/10/26/playing-with-dita2confluence/
I'm trying to use that site to get me started, but I do not have confluence.login.properties file or dita2wiki.guide.properties file. I downloaded the latest binary zip and extracted those files, but the two files you describe in this how-to about editings do not exist in the ZIP file I downloaded.
Any help?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
For some reason, the Download button is not linked to the latest release, which is DITA2Confluence 1.2.1. Instead, it downloads 1.1 which does not implement the XML-based build system.

Then I uploaded uploaded an extract from the Encyclopaedia Britannica, using DITA files from Project Gutenberg content, to my Confluence site. Even easier and even more fun:

So I thought I'd post the links here, in case anyone finds them useful.
Awesome!:) Thanks very much for sharing.
Another fun sample to test with might be the DITA OT one (downloadable on sourceforge) - I think it's called the garage example.

Try going here https://sourceforge.net/projects/dita2wiki/files/ and downloading the 1.2.1 version. You should be able to get up and running quickly from there!
