Droids came a long way. ;) I first researched @labs and from there the whole infrastructure is coming from. We started with ant+ivy but as soon more people got interested in the code Oleg introduced maven. Since then the ant+ivy stuf became more or less obsolete. We used ant as well to start certain bots. as Chapuis pointed out we agreed to switch to maven only after the release. salu2 > I'm > sure I could piece it together from the mailing list, but I'd rather ask, as > the answer will be more relevant.
