Hi,

I've just read the Introduction to the Dependency Mechanism document: http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency-mechanism.html

My project still relies heavily on Ant for building, but I'm migrating to Maven for dependency management, among other things.

There are several libraries that are used in my project's Ant build script, but not in the application itself. Examples of these include ant-contrib, bean scripting framework, and commons-logging. I'm wondering, what Maven dependency scope is most appropriate for these kinds of dependencies? It seems tricky, because these dependencies are required for neither compilation nor execution of the project's source code, but are instead required for executing the build script.

Let me know what you think. Thanks,

Jake
