Simone Gianni commented on MANTTASKS-71:
----------------------------------------
Another use case is a project that builds with Ant but wants to distribute on a
Maven repo. In this case calling deploy:deploy-file is by far easier and safer
than building the repo structure by hand from Ant. I'm currently doing this for
Ecplise AspectJ and using an Ant exec task to call Maven, which works but is
quite ugly.

> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Brett Porter

> I'm thinking out loud now, but given that we have the artifact and pom tasks,
> and m2 is embeddalbe - for those still using Ant as their primary
> environment, but might want some m2 projects we could have an m2 task. The
> artifact tasks (whould could hopefully install themselves a bit more easily
> in future) could pull down the necessary m2 libraries and fire it up to run
> goals.
