SoapUI4.5.2-Compiling the source code fails

Hi,
This is my first time I've downloaded the source code for SoapUI 4.5.2 to try some custom extensions. Before I make any changes, I want to have a working environment where I can compile the code and test it. I experienced some issues during core SoapUI build. I fixed them, then I stumbled at failure within the maven plugin tester. Here are the things which I've installed - Maven 3.0, GitHub, Eclipse Juno and Java JDK 1.6. The problems which I've encountered so far are:

1) Missed "eviware, sourceforge, javax mail and few others" plugins for soapui core sub-module. I fixed this issue by using Maven 1.0.5 to download all the missing plugins, then copy & pasted from 1.0.5 maven repository to maven 3.0.5 repository. Is this the correct approach? After I copied it, I've no problems building soapui sub-module.

2) I'm stuck at this step at the moment. When I issued "mvn clean install" at the root folder of soapui-project folder, soapui-maven-plugin-tester is failing with unknown host name error (java.net.UnknownHostException: soapui.app4test.sthlm.smartbear.local). Am I supposed to use a different hostname where these test services are hosted? or should they be created/hosted locally?

3) Where is soapui "DemoListener" used?

Could anyone be able to help me out with this? Many thanks in advance.
