If it wasn't the excalibur project, maybe. You may not have noticed it, but before I destroyed vmgump the only project still depending on the old Avalon codebase was James - since I don't find a replacement for meta-tools in Excalibur. All other dependencies, in particular commons-logging's dependency on framework and logkit have been migrated to the Excalibur maintained versions. On the other hand - unless Leo jumps in - I'm afraid that the Excalibur community doesn't care about Gump that much and we'd be left with a build tree that is only building around 50% or even less "just" because Maven started to validate the descriptors. Breaking backwards compatibility, even with the best reasons, is very difficult to do and to get accepted.
