Temporal coincidence or news on maven builds
A few weeks ago I wrote a blog entry about building applications with Apache Maven and where I see the most demanding problems with Maven builds.
Coincidentally Jason van Zyl a mastermind behind the Apache Maven Project wrote a series of articles on the blog at Sonartype, which are describing the future road map of Maven 3.0.
Some thoughts about building
Over the last few days I had some thoughts about building your project. I am using Apache Maven for quite a while now. At my current employer we use Maven for all our components even our learn portal which is build entirely in Adobe Flex, using the Flexmojos.
The bottom line is that we have approximately 100 projects build with maven to build our entire platform. You don't need much imagination that we have a couple of challenges to meet.
