I agree I don't like two build systems. I have never really gotten into maven myself, but I have had only passing familiarity with it. I always seem to need to do something a little tricky in the build which only Ant will support, given that it's the more general tool (but with disadvantages too), and so, having Ant in place, that pretty much argues against maven because I can't justify the second build system.
Yes, there is this plugin system which can bridge the gap with some work. I could be convinced otherwise, but at the moment my gut is that I am not seeing enough value to switch to really feel compelled to support it.
