-0 I haven't started coding on Tuweni, so I don't deserve a vote. But Beam moved from Maven to Gradle and it was a huge win. I think many of the reasons apply here:
- Maven doesn't do dependency-driven builds at the task level (--also-make is not this; it is at the module level) - Maven doesn't skip tasks that don't need rerunning - You can't write custom tasks easily There are workarounds, generally a `mvn install` up front followed by repeated `mvn --pl path/to/subproject task@id`. It isn't that great. Maven is still just fine for individual modules, but for a multi-module project I wouldn't choose it. Since you have a working multi-module gradle build, I wouldn't change.
