Actually I would wonder what is the point of using maven to generate
an ant script that does exactly the same as the maven build.
In 1.x the ant scripts were provided as an alternative to maven that
use local artifacts from the binary distro instead of depending on
remote repositories.
I meant to add, if working offline using local artifacts is
useful/important then i wonder if that should also be possible with
the Maven builds in the binary distribution. It might be nice if both
the Ant and Maven builds could both work offline using the
distribution artifacts, which would probably mean having the jars in
the hierarchical directory structure that maven uses and having the
Tuscany standalone runtimes work with that. At least that would then
have the jars in a fairly common and understandable structure.

From this I presume you mean having these jars under the Tuscany
installation directory rather than in the user's local maven repo.
This seems like a good idea as it's first step to creating a more
embeddable Tuscany runtime installation.
