I have no problem with using maven or similar tasks for downloading the deps, if they can provide the same functionality with our build hacks, or at least use them for the simple cases. I'm just -1 on using a framework that forces a particular way to do things ( nothing personal with maven, same -1 for any other framework :-). I know people have religious ideas about right and wrong, and frameworks is an expression of this - I just hope I won't see this in tomcat... It may be good to look at what other options exists for download and pick one that is easy to use and fits well - maven might be the best or not, that's one benefit of picking components and tools instead of 'they know better' frameworks.
