David Arthur commented on KAFKA-1171:
-------------------------------------

Sorry for being quiet on this for a few weeks - just getting back into working 
mode after the holidays.

[~joestein], still having permissions issues? Does something need a chmod +x?

[~junrao], to answer your questions:

1. Gradle will generate IDEA and Eclipse project files (I've tested this a 
little)
2. Building a release is a matter of writing a Gradle task that does all the 
necessary things (build jar, build javadocs, copy bin scripts, etc). There are 
some Gradle plugins to help with some tasks (e.g., license checking)
3. {./gradlew -Dtest.single=RequestResponseSerializationTest core:test}
4. Not sure - what is the purpose of this step in the current build? If it's 
for gathering deps for a distribution? I see this Gradle plugin 
(http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/distribution_plugin.html) which I 
haven't tried yet.

> We have previously discussed moving away from SBT to an 
> easier-to-comprehend-and-debug build system such as Ant or Gradle. I put up a 
> patch for an Ant+Ivy build a while ago[1], and it sounded like people wanted 
> to check out Gradle as well.
