Matthew Hayes commented on DATAFU-27:
-------------------------------------
I don't think it complicates it any more than other options. I think Maven is
also not usually available by default on most systems. This is at least true
of my linux desktop and mac laptop. Gradle is very simple to set up. It's
only dependency is Java. You just download the binary, unzip, and add to your
path.

> We've discussed having additional subprojects for Hive, Crunch, etc. These
> will be much easier to maintain if we migrate to a newer build system such as
> Gradle. The current Ant-based solution is pretty complex and could use an
> overhaul. I've been experimenting with migrating DataFu to use Gradle. So
> far I'm pretty happy with the results. I will post updates here once I have
> something more concrete to look at.
