      view (i.e. to create a local copy linked to the Guvnor) throws an error
      indication that a directory could not be created. This directory name has colons in it (i.e. , which will never be allowed under Windows XP.
      Here is the error:
      Could not create directory C:Documents and Settings539578My Documentsworkspace.metadata.pluginsorg.guvnor.tools-2edc6539:1232df2fb51:-7ff6
      Could not create directory C:Documents and Settings539578My Documentsworkspace.metadata.pluginsorg.guvnor.tools-2edc6539:1232df2fb51:-7ff6

      2.) Trying to use the "Resources from Guvnor" wizard also produces an error, and the wizard does not let you browse the Guvnor repository to choose resources to copy over to eclipse.
      Error Reason:
      3 entries found for http://localhost:8080/jboss-brms/org.drools.guvnor.Guvnor/webdav
