I was talking mostly about the build process. Either eclipse has an svn 
client, or you will need to install one. You then configure it to point 
to the ginp repository - sourceforge project help tells you how to set 
up the parameters (might be something in the mail archives too).

Then you can download the source.

You have to build the project with maven. That is the bit you might find 
complicated - you should probably install and build using maven from a 
command prompt, i.e. outside eclipse, to start with.

Then you will have a new war file from the latest source.

Deploy the war to tomcat and follow the install instructions to 
configure it.

I will be away for a week, so don't be surprised if you hear nothing 
more from me.
