Hi, I wanted to share some insight that is more or less related to this thread.

The new plugin system is quite awesome. It gives you all the power to
reuse gradle scripts seamlessly, but it is also easy for it to get a
bit out of control. Take for  example the set of plugins that we have
developed to scratch our very own itch:

https://loom.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/loom/shared/trunk/

We are handling near 10-15 projects that are being migrated to gradle
right now. As such, code reuse is a big deal, but master was not
cutting it, so we started working with gradle-0.9 and the new plugin
system. So far, so good.

Once we got started, we quite soon started making our own bugfixes:
adding providedCompile, creating a javadoc and sources artifacts for
our maven deployments, copying the jar files to be included into
eclipse... Suffice to say that this folder is the result of less than
one month working with it.

This is just to point out that once 0.9 gets out, the same will be
happening a lot. It would be a good idea to keep track of all the
goodies out there, maybe even pick up the ones that should make it
into gradle.

Best regards,

Nacho.
