Agreed, and chiming in late: I'm moving back to Ant as an experiment, because it's FAST and perhaps all that I need. (I'm showing signs of wear from Maven's n-second startup delay, which makes me think YAGNI all the more.) I did appreciate Maven's help learning new tools -- it easily wired up AspectJ for an hour of playing -- and its dependency model kept sub-project builds happening in the right order. -- Matthew _______________________________________________ Juglist mailing list [email protected] http://trijug.org/mailman/listinfo/juglist_trijug.org
