Maven and Flex hoodoo
The last time when I blogged about the Flex mojos I was still quite frustrated and thought I had a better solution. Now some time passed and on April the 3rd the new version (3.1) of the flex mojos was released and me and some of my colleges made some interesting discoveries.

Well, but in the last few weeks I often thought about the meaning and the source of the word mojo. Lets take a closer look at wikipedia.
Mojo (pronounced /ˈmoʊdʒoʊ/) is a term commonly encountered in the African-American folk belief called hoodoo. A mojo is a type of magic charm, often of red flannel cloth and tied with a drawstring, containing botanical, zoological, and/or mineral curios, petition papers, and the like. It is typically worn under clothing.
Okay, hoodoo! That explains quite a lot. Sometimes maven and the flex-mojos are a kind of magic.
But let's get back on topic 
The boys from the Flex mojos where quite busy and created with the 3.x release very usable platform for flex builds in the maven world. It took us (mainly a freelance colleague) two more weeks to adapt our build process form various ant scripts into a multi-module maven2 build. But now it looks quite nice, the build is even faster and we were able to fix a problem with our Flex Builder configuration.
