My feelings exactly. Every time a new build system comes out, I get
excited, I try it and I realize that while it does fix a few things that
don't work very well in Maven, Maven still wins overall in usability,
productivity, tooling and general support.

And yes, I put gradle firmly in that category. I'm excited about Gradle for
a few things but overall, it's still not a very clear jump forward compared
to Maven (and I think Android's decision to standardize on Gradle is a
mistake that they will back pedal from in the next couple of years).
