I see that Wendy is using Maven 1.x. Are there any plans to move it to Maven 2?

Yep, I knew that, both that she was Mavenizing it *and* that she can be a glutton for punishment :) I was hoping you'd continue the Ant scripts... as I said to Wendy a few days ago, it seems like many people are switching to Maven, and I liked being able to point to you and say "hey, Craig isn't using it, I can't be completely wrong in sticking with Ant!" :) At the end of the day though, it's just like Struts... Whatever my feelings about Maven, if the build works and I don't have to maintain the script, not really a big deal either way. > Even if that weren't the case, though, I'm not positive that, in an Ant-only > world, defining external dependencies separately (rather than explicitly in > <get> targets as Shale does now) is necessarily a better thing -- but that > might also be my long time antipathy to Maven showing through :-). I know the feeling, I haven't been overly excited about Maven personally. This particular feature though is one that I didn't have an immediate aversion to, and I was happy to find this analogy for Ant... especially for JWP as an example, it cut out over 1MB of download size from the source distro; I definitely appreciate that. > Craig Frank --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
