Hi all, Thanks for pushing this issue up again. As there is a strong need to support Maven, I would like to provide a solution for 1.1 and ideally for 1.0 too.
Converting the build from Ant to Maven was tried in the past but failed due to the way Eclipse organizes plugins, in a flat structure, preventing the nesting of projects naturally used by Maven. However, the dynamic generation of POM descriptors is definitely something feasible, especially if I get help defining the ideal POM templates. As the distribution contains 16 JARs with dependencies between them and with third-party libraries, that should make 16 POM files. Could those already having private POMs attach them to the RFE report? http://restlet.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=91 Once we get a good set of samples, I'll adjust the Ant build script to generate them dynamically and provide them either via the Web site for each release.
