Re: Gradle Build [PREVIOUSLY] Re: Board feedback - Request discuss attic for River

Phil,

If nothing else comes of this, I want to thank you for the phrase "FSM help 
me”. I had to look it up, and had a huge grin reading the wikipedia page I 
found. Wow!

Any way, I think Peter’s work includes much of the conversion to a build using 
maven modules. I am not maven averse, but neither am I gradle negative. My 
enthusiasm for the maven build is based on a hope it would lead to clearer 
delineation of  components (some of which share the same source code, but 
produce separate jars with some of the same class files as needed). I’d be 
happy to lend a hand with any maven issue that pops up, but would not lambast a 
gradle approach.

A Gradle build would be nice. I'm willing to invest some time trying
to help make it happen if need be. But I am curious.., it looks like
someone started a Maven build a while back.. From what I can see it
seems to maybe be incomplete, or just bit-rotted. But depending on the
details of the state of that work, would there be any reason to prefer
sticking with maven? (FSM help me, I can't believe I just said that in
a public forum).

I'm not the biggest Maven fan in the world, so I only raise this issue
from the "can we use existing work instead of starting from scratch"
perspective.
