    That would be my preference. Don't want to depend on Ant tasks. Support for 
those has been on the decline, and they have some user-facing API peculiarities 
that I don't want to see propagated to Gradle. So let's try to build native 
plugins, using Maven Mojos as API prototypes as I suggested earlier [1].

    My understanding that "canonical" repo for Gradle plugins is this: 
https://plugins.gradle.org/ So that's where we publish them when we do our next 
official release.

    Let's ignore the Ant tasks for a moment.

    We need matching Gradle plugins mirroring the API/configuration of the 
corresponding Maven plugins [1]. We do not need "cdataport", but we do need 
these 3:
    
    * cgen [2]
    * cdbimport [3]
    * cdbgen [4]

    Good idea. I just created 3 Jiras - [2,3,4]
