We used maven for 7 month, and we found it very useful.
It helps us :
- to manage correctly and uniformly dependency version .
- to provide (easily) project documentation
- to remove our 'dirty fat' Ant scripts
- ...
The Cons:
- Sometimes we had to update plug-in in order
to make it works (for us)
- The remote repository (ibiblio.org) is not accessible
from our posts. It was painful to start with maven (and
upgrade too) . Maybe the MavenProxy can solve this.

We solved this in a different manner. We have updated the
multi-project to <exec> maven for each sub-project.

We have made such plugin (based upon xmltask) and it works fine
for us. If you are interested, i can send it to you...
