At July 4, 2005, there was some suggestions to start using Maven in the ArgoUML build process, and this was debated on this list[1]. Ludovic Maitre was working on it, but he didn't convinced some people about this. Anyway, he started to work on this in some argouml subprojects and dependencies. I have seen that at June, 2006, he stopped editing his wiki [2] on this matter.
In the discussion above, Tom Morris said: Another thing to consider, which I just noticed when visiting the Maven site today, is that the Maven folks are apparently in the middle of a complete rewrite which will be incompatible with the existing Maven 1.x. That may influence the timing of when is best to move to Maven. I think that this would be a good moment to move to Maven2. I'm not going to say all the advantages Maven2 can bring to the ArgoUML project and subprojects, because this was said on that discussion. I have a little experience with Maven2 -I'm sure more people on this list have it too- and I think I could contribute on this to the ArgoUML project -any help would be appreciated, of course-. After saying that, I do this questions: Is Ludovic working on it? Is any work done already? What do you think about this? I'll be waiting for your answers. Thanks.
