Maven seems to be better at dependency management. In addition there are a lot more tools one can use with maven.
Not that I disagree with having Pluto mavenized, but I would rather say
"dependency hiding" than "dependency management". What maven usually
does is to download in the background everything needed.
But it makes the project developers declare which versions of the dependencies are necessary.
True, and this is a big leap forward towards dependency management. I was seeing only the negative part (that often you miss the fact a dependency exists because of self downloading).
This is one of the things I don't like about maven. This, and the fact that it means hanging on a beta for building the project.
FWIW, maven is no longer in beta.
true again, last i checked it was the broken beta9, so we stayed with beta8. I see in the web site that it is in RC2 now. I'll rephrase as "hanging on unreleased code for building the project". This is something that jetspeed did a lot in the past.
I would prefer a dual setup, where ant tasks can be called "by hand" orDitto.
handed to maven. Just my two cents.
