I know this is definitely an RTFM question, but I think there is a
strategy issue here as well worth a quick email.

Gradle by default uses the directory build as the build directory
whereas Maven uses target.  Is there a quick and easy way to make Gradle
Maven compliant?

buildDir = 'target'


I wonder if Gradle should just go with the Maven structure by default?

I find target is a very unexpressive name and build more appropriate. As this is a constructed folder, Maven projects don't have to change there layouts.

I'm wondering what other people think about this.
IMHO 'target' is confusing and I like 'build' or 'out' better. The
things I find confusing are the build-resolvers and buildSrc directory
names. Can I suggest build/resolvers and  'src/build/groovy'
respectively (of course the user can change the layout in the same way
he can redefine src/main/java)?
