I am trying to pitch maven to the folks who are still using Ant + Ivy and
have created a dependency mess. One of the points I want to mention is
polyglot because of fewer number of lines of code. Is your update from Aug
2012 still valid ? as in, polyglot not abandoned ?
Thanks

Ralf,
I'm still working on it along with a few others. Dhanji has the Atom markup
working[1], Kristian has implemented a Ruby DSL[2], and Jason Dillon has
implemented a Groovy DSL which creates synthetic plugins to bind arbitrary
scripting to Maven's lifecycle. My original was to see how
I don't know what Sonatype have decided with respect to polyglot.
From my personal PoV I see polyglot more as an experiment to find the best
v5 pom format rather than an on-going support for multiple formats.
Maven is supposed to be an opinionated build tool, with opinionated being a
feature...
