Re: Question for GWT users who use Maven

This is the last thing I'll say about maven, I don't want to start a
flame war :

Version numbers : how about a manifest file ??
Ant builds are almost always horrific ? Apparently, all example code
from Google works out of the box, expect for the maven builds. But
surely, my environment is to blame.
"why doesn't GWT follow established Maven conventions?" => Maybe the
world doesn't revolve around maven ?
"GWT likes to do everything in unconventional ways." => maybe the tool
of your choice isn't that flexible after all ?

People who love Maven, love the theory behind it. And I sure can see
the theory too. But this thing got stuck where old school Linux
dependency hell once made me loose hair. We were told it is the
learning curve back then too!! Yes, I've been running in-house maven
repos to fix all that madness. Time I should've spent coding!
People who hate Maven, hate the reality it brings. I'm with them. Now
start yelling you're doing the *big* projects, and all non-Maven are
only doing toy projects. Right, we're the newbies, not aware of the
world around us.
