But you really should stick to the "rules" Maven implies. If you start building your own build system on top, then you're obviously doing something wrong and should better use Ant.
Now, I don't see any need for a different build system than Maven here at Avalon. If the current system would be stripped down and simple use all available things from Maven without extending here and there, then I bet it will build everything Avalon needs without any problems. We all know how painfull the old Ant system was and how long it took until it worked and we all know how long the move to Maven took. So switching back to Ant is imho the wrong way. Simplify the current build system and throw away all Avalon specific goals.
