Dear Grzegorz
I was just in the process of flaming the bejesus out of you for what
you just said!
Without a whole bunch of very smart 'old-timers' like Sylvain, there
would be no Cocoon.
The Ant versus Maven controversy has already caused too much
disaffection in this project, IMHO.
Thanks for retracting/apologising so quickly.
regards Jeremy

Stated clearly, I have fears that just as Maven almost killed the

Sylvain, pardon my ignorance but what kind of real problems with
Maven we have _now_ in Cocoon's trunk? I can understand that people
were fed up with Maven at the beginning of the transition because
it was almost impossible to build Cocoon. But that was more than
one year ago.
When it comes to user community, I would say that it grows quite
nicely. There are people contributing[1][2] some tutorials, sharing
their experience and seem to have a real fun with 2.2.
Could it be a good idea that old-timers just take an example of our
user's community and overcome their own prejudices, finally?
I realized that I little bit misunderstood Sylvain's e-mail and used
inappropriate tone for my response. The last statement was not
really needed.
I'm sorry about that, Sylvain.
