sbt web plugin: Not a valid key: jetty-run (similar: jetty-port, jetty-context, run) - scala

Question

I'm trying to set up a scala sbt project with the lift web framework. I'm using
scala 2.9.0-1
sbt 0.10.1
lift 2.3
xsbt-web-plugin 0.1.1 (which is only on scala 2.8.1, see end of question)
(quite recent versions I know).
I followed http://d.hatena.ne.jp/k4200/20110711/1310354698 and https://github.com/siasia/xsbt-web-plugin/blob/master/README.md to obtain the following sbt configuration files:
project/build.properties
sbt.version=0.10.1
project/plugins/build.sbt
resolvers += "Web plugin repo" at "http://siasia.github.com/maven2"
libraryDependencies <+= sbtVersion(v => "com.github.siasia" % "xsbt-web-plugin_2.8.1" % ("0.1.1-"+v))

lazy val core : Project = Project("core", file("core"), delegates = root :: Nil, settings = buildSettings ++

) dependsOn(core)
}
When I try sbt jetty-run I get the following error message:
[error] Not a valid command: jetty-run
[error] Not a valid project ID: jetty-run
[error] Not a valid configuration: jetty-run
[error] Not a valid key: jetty-run (similar: jetty-port, jetty-context, run)
[error] jetty-run
[error]
So I noticed that some jetty-* commands do exist, but not the one I want, so I printed webSettings which is supposed to contain all these new settings and it contains jetty-context and jetty-port, as well as jetty-configuration and others, but not jetty-run :s.
What did I go wrong to not have jetty-run?
I tried switching to scala-2.8.1 since the web plugin is currently only on scala 2.8.1, by changing my buildScalaVersion variable but that didn't change anything. Do you have any idea?
Thanks in advance for your help

Tasks are aggregated; commands are not.
jetty-run is a command. It is only available in the context of the sub-project with the web plugin settings.
> project web
> jetty-run
Once it is running, you can use the prepare-webapp task to redeploy the webapp. This can be run from the context of the root project, because it aggregates the web project.
