I'm +1 on the -1 on maven. We've had many bad experiences with maven in the past. It's basically impossible to produce repeatable builds with maven for many well documented reasons that I won't recount.

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?
