Steve makes some good, valid points on that blog about Maven 2. I get the feeling that Maven 3 fixes a lot of those problems and the maven 3.1 promises a lot too. At Devoxx 2009 I saw 2 presentations: - Gradle (the lead, forgot his name): showed a build of a one module project with one source file - and it was fast. All in all, Gradle felt like a toy (I must be wrong since the Hibernate guys are serious). - a Maven 3 (the lead, Jason) presentation: he basically went over all the things I hate about maven 2 and stated that maven 3 or 3.1 would fix them while remaining backward compatible. He showed a large multi-project build with tons of sources files and it was relatively fast.
It will be very interesting to see how hibernate's experimentation with Gradle goes and how the maven guys react. Nevertheless, I am convinced that most of the problems in our build are fixable, by cleaning up our build: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBRULES-2504 If I get some time for that, I 'd love to pull the effort to fix those issues.
