Hi Lenya Devs,
Does it mean that we have to remove all binary libraries before we can
do the new release ?
If yes: Would it be good to use maven instead of ant ?
This shouldn't be necessary, we could as well use Ivy (which can access
Maven repositories) for dependency management.
Having worked with Maven for a couple of years now, I'm not a particular
fan of it. The syntax is overly verbose, some concepts are very complex
(e.g. profiles) and the build process is very restrictive.
I don't think it is necessary or particularly beneficial to move away
from Ant for the existing codebase. If we decide to do this, though, we
might want to take a look at Gradle and maybe Buildr (Gradle seems to be
more stable, Buildr otoh is an Apache project).

Ivy certainly could do it. Gradle can integrate the ant tasks right in,
which is what would make it an attractive option.
I am a fan of Maven, but I'm only using it for simple builds. The more
complex the build, the less appealing it becomes.
