I like how you have presented pro's of both (Ant + Ivy) and Maven. My personal experience have been that Ivy WORKS :-). I've seen many projects trying to use Maven and crash and burn..imagine a build/dependency management system, which is so crippling and brittle. My favorite quote from someone using Maven was: "/I understood the technology of the project in not time. It took me ages to figure out how Maven works. Doing simple things is very hard. It's very buggy and has horrendous documentation/" I know you can't state this in your presentation, but just wanted to let you know that I'm glad Ivy is around for us to use with Ant.
Thanks for these kind words, I always appreciate them. Maybe to reflect what you say I can add to the pros of Ant+Ivy "no magic". I don't find the good words (at least not in english :-)), but I think you get the idea. - Xavier --Vishal
