Thanks to all for the helpful responses. I was concerned about using Gradle as a build tool because so many OSGi resources I was finding seemed to be using Maven, and the change of enRoute docs from Gradle to Maven seemed to communicate a move away from Gradle as a "preferred" build tool. But given that Maven still seems to be the dominant build tool in the Java world, I can understand the rationale for transitioning enRoute from Gradle to Maven. Also, I can understand that maintaining both Maven and Gradle versions of enRoute would be a burden.
