Basically I mean the possibility to turn a POM in some kind of Ant build script. Especially I refer the 3rd paragraph here: http://maven.apache.org/background/philosophy-of-maven.html. If you had ever used a large project with a lot of developers using highly individual Ant scripts, you know what I mean. A pure maintenance nightmare that already starts not with the first line of code to fix, but with the initial build. Meanwhile I can also see here on the Maven list some kind of "we must support any cornercase" attitude, simply because some people do not want to follow Maven's best practices building their projects. If somebody really has the need for a very individual process building an artifact it might be better if he develops his own plugin doing the job at once instead of cascading a whole bunch of different plugins multiple times. The result will be that this complete build section is copied over again a multiple time and then we're back to Ant times. - Jörg > > The only reason I can see for it changing is to allow using multiple > versions of the same plugin...
