Hi, On his blog, Lex Spoon makes some interesting points against most build systems, using Maven as an example: http://blog.lexspoon.org/2012/12/recursive-maven-considered-harmful.html In related news, I've heard people complain about “insanely long build times via building unnecessary things” and tracking down the cause to being Maven, to the extent that they're thinking about making their own build system (many are Xooglers and they probably would like.
I've made some proposals for improvements in the comments of Lex's post, and I'm eager to know what other people think, particularly Maven core developers/contributors. Has this been ever discussed? If yes, is this planned or has it been dismissed? In the latter case, for which reasons?
