You may want to look at the Maven Ant Tasks. They're very useful to integrating Ant with Maven's dependency management and artifact handling.

I've been changing the dependency JAR paths of the ant projects to point into the maven repositories though (makes it much easier since I don't have to keep thousands of tar.gz's and their extracts lying around). I want to update a specific dependency of an ant project, and was hoping to simply download it into my maven repository. I can easily setup the remote repository, make a maven project, build it, etc. But isn't there another way to quickly inject a dependency into my local repo?
