Reuse seems like the best solution via wrapper classes. Are you talking about jars that must be bootstrapped by Ant? I'm not sure how this would fly, but I could drop the jars in the $ANT_HOME/lib directory. Can you explain this further?
Let me add to it before Dave wakes up :)
The maven plugin expects the Geronimo-specific libraries, and (fortunatelly) Maven takes care of it, i.e. it'll download them when required (unlike Ant). That's how I understood the Dave's "fortunatelly".
I don't know how exactly a plugin tells Maven what it needs, but in our build configuration, during the build Maven looks at modules/maven-plugin/project.xml and downloads the dependencies (declared as <dependencies/>). Therefore, once the build is done, the libs are in their place, ready to be used by the plugin.
