I have not tried buildr yet but I did speak to a colleague who is a
Ruby developer and he says that Rake (upon which Buildr is based) is
very good - flexible and straightforward to use. I think the key
requirement is flexibility.

So I would certainly support closer examination of it, and if it turns
out that it is too immature or otherwise unsuitable we did have an
excellent ant-based system that served us well in the past, courtesy
of Rafi.
