One of the weirder debates at my old job was moving from Ant to Maven. I always looked at it as way, way, way more complexity for marginal gains. That being said, Buildr looks good and I’ll be looking into it for my Java projects. Maven 2 was, by far, the most annoying thing about learning Appfuse.

Found this via Brea Grant’s blog. It’s a good song, and the rest of the album is pretty good. You can get the album, Re-arrange Us, on Amazon.com’s MP3 store. No DRM, just plain, high quality MP3 files.
(PS. Don’t forget to watch Brea Grant on Heroes in a few weeks, and check out other books and music she likes over at Coolspotters. And, no, I’ve got no connection to her, business or otherwise. Just a fan since I saw her on Friday Night Lights.)

I’m sorry you don’t like that we’re using Maven for AppFuse 2.0. For better or worse, Maven has has made it much easier to maintain and release the project itself.

It’s not really a criticism of Appfuse… I understand why the project needs something like Maven. I just think Maven itself is too dense, but then again… maybe I am.
