Hi bigtop. bigtop-1585 (test artifacts fixes) brought up the ghost of bigtop-1479 (gradle maven integration) ...
With bigtop 1x ideas floating around, i wonder wether 1x will obviate some things that are maven specific in such a way that we can simply do w/ gradle and nothing else? if so, we can just - keep stuff as is until bigtop 1x comes out, and then - drop mvn entirely. i have a feeling, that if we all agree (i think we do, correct me if wrong) that we are willing to drop alot of features in bigtop 1x, in favor of a few, very welll supported components... then it might be easy to port 100% to gradle at that time, rather than glue maven and gradle together. -- jay vyas
