I worked on Pants at Foursquare for a while and when coming up to speed on
Spark was interested in the possibility of building it with Pants,
particularly because allowing developers to share/reuse each others'
compilation artifacts seems like it would be a boon to productivity; that
was/is Pants'
FYI: Here is the matching discussion over on the Pants dev list.

Of course, if the experiment turns out very well, Pants would replace both
sbt and Maven (like it has at Twitter, for example). Pants also works with
IDEs http://pantsbuild.github.io/index.html#using-pants-with.

There is a significant investment in sbt and maven - and they are not at
all likely to be going away. A third build tool? Note that there is also
the perspective of building within an IDE - which actually works presently
for sbt and with a little bit of tweaking with maven as well.

To reiterate, I'm asking from an experimental perspective. I'm not
proposing we change Spark to build with Pants or anything like that.
I'm interested in trying Pants out and I'm wondering if anyone else shares
my interest or already has experience with Pants that they can share.

Does anyone here have experience with Pants
http://pantsbuild.github.io/index.html or interest in trying to build
Spark with it?
Pants has an interesting story. It was born at Twitter to help them build
their Scala, Java, and Python projects as several independent components in
one monolithic
