Hi Andrus,
what a good question -)
Maven is quite a dream, the idea is perfect, its powerful and quite easy to
use...
But it can be a nightmare while trying to make serious unit tests, please
refer to the Cocoon build notes for pleasant notes, or find the blog from my
friend Stephane Bailliez member from the Joost team where he deals with this
subject... Joost seems to keep an old solution based on ANT + Ivy ..Works
well...
No other comments...
Oops just a small one, running after the latest release of any library in
the Maven repositories is quite boring, Spring 2 M 4 is available but not
final release, Hibernate 3.2 but not 3.2.1 or 3.2.2... Installing manually
jars on local repositories is a feature but should be quite rare while its
permanent...
My 2 pieces
