There is a contingent at my office that believes they should write their
own build system. They manage a HUGE project using a directory full of
Ant scripts. It's insane. I came along and started using Maven for the
projects I was leading up. Folks are beginning to take notice that,
"Hey, he's getting builds to run smoothly without a ton of effort.
What's that all about?" Of course, I am of the "don't re-invent the
wheel" school of thought. I'm not going to waste my own time writing
something that a lot of other really bright people have already put a
lot of thought and effort into. I don't see how I could possibly
compete with that on my own.
