The following archetype creates a project with a bug in the index.html file: 

mvn archetype:create -U  \
 -DarchetypeGroupId=net.liftweb                             \
 -DarchetypeArtifactId=lift-archetype-basic                 \
 -DarchetypeVersion=0.9                            \
 -DremoteRepositories=http://scala-tools.org/repo-releases  \
 -DgroupId=net.liftweb.hello -DartifactId=hello-lift

In src/main/webapp/index.html you can see that the 3rd line is wrong. When the page is rendered this line does not appear. 

<lift:surround with="default" at="content">
  <h2>Welcome to the your project!</h2>
  <p><lift:HelloWorld.howdy /></p>   <--------- bug
</lift:surround>

This should read as: 

<lift:surround with="default" at="content">
  <h2>Welcome to the your project!</h2>
  <p><lift:snippet type="HelloWorld:howdy" /></p>
</lift:surround>

I had to use Maven 2.0.9 on OSX (default 2.0.6) to get this to work. 2.0.6 failed to download the dependencies correctly.
