Eirik Maus commented on TAPESTRY-1732:
--------------------------------------
please keep the build on maven. that makes it so much easier for external users
to just checkout the code and build (sometimes the easiest way to track down
bugs and misconceptions). maven2 builds always work right out of the box, ant
builds never does.
> Replace Maven build with Ant build

> Project: Tapestry
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Build
> Affects Versions: 5.0.5
> Reporter: Howard M. Lewis Ship
> Fix For: 5.1

>
> I like Maven dependency management.
> However, it is increasingly evident to me that the Maven approach to the
> actual build, based on endless plugins and configurations, is not worthwhile.
> The only part that's necessary is the Maven Ant tasks, which encapsulate
> downloading dependencies, installing them, and deploying them to remote
> repositories.
> Everything else worthwhile that Maven provides could be created as easily
> using Ant and perhaps a few Velocity templates. I'm willing to bet that the
> end result would work faster and take far less effort to maintain.
