Owen O'Malley commented on HIVE-4305:
-------------------------------------
The advantages of Maven are:
* IDE support is much better
* Offline support is much better
* You can download a Maven project and build it without reading the build file.
* Publishing to Maven central is much easier.
* Profiles work much better in Maven.
> Use a single system for dependency resolution

> Reporter: Travis Crawford

> Both Hive and HCatalog use ant as their build tool. However, Hive uses ivy
> for dependency resolution while HCatalog uses maven-ant-tasks. With the
> project merge we should converge on a single tool for dependency resolution.
