I have reviewed the changes between 1.4 and 1.5, and although there are real benefits, I am not sure it outweighs the effort to get the current implementation upgraded. Has anyone gone through an assessment of upgrading and determined the benefits were worth doing so, or not doing so. I am just interested in others approach to this process.
Also, now that 1.5 builds using maven, I am not sure of the ramifications of this to our developer build process. I have eclipse setup so that an ant build can be performed which will build Jetspeed from source and integrate our "implementation" specific changes and then deploy to tomcat. How does the introduction of maven change this? I read from the readme.txt that the ant build has been deprecated. I have run maven builds before, but never really looked under the covers, and wondered how others were approaching this process. Any thoughts? Jason Trust
