Any particular reason?
I must be old or stupid (or both!) because I can't understand why people
like maven. Admittedly I haven't used it for a long time and the
usability may have improved. However my recollection is of more
frustration than I have ever experienced with a 'build system'.
Even philosophically it seemed wrong to me - I want to compile my
changes and it goes off looking for any updates to jar files the project
or the tool itself might use. That sort of system update seems to me
like it should be an entirely separate step.
At present sadly I don't have the time to spend on proton-j that I would
like, so my opinion should not be given much weight if the preference
for maven is widespread amongst real users and developers.
