This has already been discussed; see https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/cmake-maven-project-users/5FpfUHmg5Ho Actually the situation is even worse than it might seem from that thread, since it turns out that com.googlecode.cmake-maven-project has no support for any platforms but Windows. It also has no support for running native unit tests, which is a big motivation behind HADOOP-8887. > 2. Groovy accepts java syntax.

Part of the reason for this thread is so that we can come up with a solution for both branch-1 and later branches. This would not be accomplished by putting all the logic into a pom.xml file, since branch-1 doesn't use Maven. best, Colin
