I'm +1 on the -1 on maven. We've had many bad experiences with maven

In general I would prefer to avoid adding more build technologies into
the mix for qpid unless it is *absolutely* necessary. We already have
ant, nant, autotools, cmake, make, rake, distutils, and various shell
scripts already required to actually produce something useful from our
source code. Let's not make this picture any worse.
I imagine using xmllint for xinclude is the bit that doesn't work on
Windows.
The Saxon + FOP approach works well on Windows, I'd probably support
that with an ant file that downloads everything it needs into
subdirectories if not present.
Any objections to that approach?
