    +1 for reconsidering the maven move :).

    Slower software is called "progress" in IT these days. The software industry needs to support the
    hardware producers :).

    No, not at all.
    Before the maven migration, everybody in our team was doing (almost every day) a local build from
    the Cayenne HEAD. If there was something broken, it was simple to change the build files since IDEs
    have so "intelligent" features to support ANT.

    Since the maven migration *nobody* is doing that anymore :(. If with maven is something broken,
    normal users *cant't* fix it.

    Ahmed.
