Joshua builds with Ant. Justification for this right now is well versed, there are a number of more complex steps e.g. Compiling c++ GIZA code and also the thrax codebase also needs to be install IIRC. I took a look at porting the build to Maven literally 2 or 3 weeks ago but right now it seems like a bit of investment in time. If anyone fancies doing this however, last time I spoke to Matt he was game for porting the build to Maven.
