Description
Question raised by Robert on the use of Maven to help manage dependencies. After configuration of library dependency, a developer can basically check out the project, and as part of the normal build process, Maven would download necessary libraries.
Few Q's:
Does maven replace or augment ant? (apparently augments it)
What is required to setup a build environment to utilize Maven?
How will using Maven impact build of existing apps like Metacat and Mercury?
What's required to contribute to the public Maven repo?
