Proceed with baby steps - having got to the advanced stage of a very
similar task on another project, it's quite a journey.

The reason moving to maven is quite involved is because maven enforces
quite a rigorous project discipline onto your project: Proper version
number management, a proper release process, formal ways of firing off
test suites.

It can take quite a bit of time to clear out the various shortcuts that
people stick into ant scripts, and to convince people to be more
disciplined during development.

The end goal however is worth it: Once maven works, and as long as people
work with maven and not against it, project releases become very smooth
and trouble free.

Graham
