Philip Lopez commented on TAPESTRY-1732:
----------------------------------------
+0.5 for keeping Maven around...
Maven can certainly be a pain, although it is certainly more
reliable/predictable these days than it used to be. Practices such as
specifying version numbers of plugins (I think this will be a default in Maven
2.0.9 for Super POM plugins) can help. I do like mvn eclipse:eclipse or mvn
idea:idea and the fact that, once you've learned Maven, you can pick up a new
(OSS) project and know how to build it immediately.

> 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.
