Hi all - I've been thinking about using Maven 2 as the builder for the API instead of Ant. It has some big advantages:
1 - It will deal with our binary dependency requirements in an elegant manner (no need to have clunky fetch routines) 2 - It's understood by Hudson 3 - There are full plugins for Eclipse and Netbeans 4 - The Eclipse plugin at least makes use of the Maven POM and repository system to allow seemless integration with the Eclipse compiler 5 - Maven can produce a professional website for us for almost free. I like the idea but its a big change so I'd like to get others views on whether this is a good idea ? What are downsides? Cheers Steve
