These are great!
As a wish list suggestion (only if it is possible and it can be done in a reasonable
amount of time). Could the name of the person commiting be added to the file. This
will be useful for me when backporting to biojava1.3 branch so I can ask the original
commiter if I'm not clear on how appropriate a change is to 1.3 and what dependencies
are needed etc.
Thanks
Mark

Not at the moment. When I last looked at Maven, I was a bit
worried that it didn't seem to make much distinction between
the useful functionality is was offering and the policy
decisions it was trying to enforce. I'd be happy to try
it out with a new project, but I don't want to roll over
an existing BioJava-sized project without a lot of testing
and consultation first.
Maybe we should try Maven-izing a few BioJava subprojects
(biojava-ensembl might be a reasonable candidate) to see
how it works.

Have you looked at all at Quilt:
http://quilt.sourceforge.net/
This still seems to be a bit of a work-in-progress, but it
sounds like the basics are working, and it's Apache licenced.
I'm tempted to give this a try, anyway.
By the way, nightly builds are now going into:
http://www.derkholm.net/autobuild/
I need to do a little more work on the reporting side, but
this should be going public in the next few days.
Thomas.
