Ivy adds a feature to Ant while Maven replaces Ant. If folks are happy
with Ant, and seek just to add dependency management, then Ivy's a good
choice.

Folks,
I found that sometime back there was some discussion on which of these to use
in order to manage dependencies between sub-projects and hadoop core (I think a
lot of it was in the context of Zookeeper). It seemed from that discussion that
there was a lean towards using Ivy in order to manage dependencies for
subprojects. Is that correct? Is that recommended route for the subprojects?
What are the advantages/disadvantages of using one over the other?
Thanks,
Ashish
