I agree on the Maven mojo programming. Anything to simplify custom build "scripts" would be great, so SBT sounds like an interesting idea.

Hey Derek, I know about this command :-) My observation (of my friend at least) is that his reaction was "holy- cow, i need to learn this build tool, a new language and a new framework". The language and framework part you cant get away from invariably but perhaps we can do something on the build tool front. Also what you generally see people doing with Rake is creating useful little utilities without having to know heaps about how actually rake works under the hood. Right now, IMO, creating maven mojo's is quite difficult and you wouldnt see that same thing happening (a lot of people are also very against "programming in XML" which maven can sometimes feel like) Like I said, im not really pro-SBT or anything, I just wanted to float the idea. Maven is doing a great job for us right now I agree. @davidB: Is there an ETA for maven 2.1 and 3.0 and/or a roadmap of new features?

There's no *requirement* to use all of the "-D" stuff. If you just do mvn -U archetype:generate you actually get a nice list of archetypes, two of which are: 31: internal -> lift-archetype-blank (A blank/empty liftweb project) 32: internal -> lift-archetype-basic (The basic (liftweb) project) If you just pick the number it prompts you for the necessary info.

[Lift] Re: Simple Build Tool
I took a quick look at it. like make, ant, builr the main issue I've got with it's it require scala to be installed and to don't manage the version of scala use to build you're project. And I suspect it could only build scala-project that used the same version as the tools itself. But I pro a new build tool (it has some nice feature), maven is not perfect (I'll also keep an eye on maven 2.1 and 3.0) /davidB On Sun, Oct 5, 2008 at 9:22 PM, Jorge Ortiz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I don't see a downside to providing an alternative build system to people > who are very Maven-averse (as long as I don't have to maintain it!, heh) > > But yeah, replacing Maven at this point seems unwise, unless there are very > compelling reasons. > > --j > > On Sun, Oct 5, 2008 at 12:15 PM, David Pollak > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> >> On Sun, Oct 5, 2008 at 10:59 AM, Tim Perrett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >>> >>> Guys, >>> >>> Check this out: >>> >>> http://code.google.com/p/simple-build-tool/ >>> >>> It appeared a couple of days ago - im wondering if its something we >>> could customize to make starting lift projects easier?

god no, I dont want to replace maven :-) There is talk of SBT having rake type functionality in the not too distant future, so that was more what I was thinking. I appreciate that maven can do all that stuff but from a beginer perspective its pretty difficult for them to learn. I recently persuaded my best friend to take up lift, and one of the things he just couldnt understand was all the -D stuff he needed to do when getting started. So my intention here was more thinking that perhaps its something we could leverage to simply our project creation needs etc Like I said, just floating the idea :-) Cheers Tim On Oct 5, 8:22 pm, "Jorge Ortiz" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I don't see a downside to providing an alternative build system to people > who are very Maven-averse (as long as I don't have to maintain it!, heh) > > But yeah, replacing Maven at this point seems unwise, unless there are very > compelling reasons. > > --j > > On Sun, Oct 5, 2008 at 12:15 PM, David Pollak <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > wrote: > > > On Sun, Oct 5, 2008 at 10:59 AM, Tim Perrett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > >> Guys, > > >> Check this out: > > >>http://code.google.com/p/simple-build-tool/ > > >> It appeared a couple of days ago - im wondering if its something we > >> could customize to make starting lift projects easier?
