The issue with that is that users then need Maven to generate the Ant scripts and the uses who want the Ant scripts probably don't want to have to be using Maven. To fix that we could include the generated Ant scripts with the sample but i'm not sure that the way the Maven generated scripts download the dependencies from the Maven repo was liked by some in the sample discussion thread. Also the generated script is three new files which starts to clutter up the maven sample, i'm not sure how much of an issue this really is, one suggestion in the sample discussion thread was to have a separate sample showing how to use Tuscany with Ant. For now i was just leaving what to do with Ant till later, but if someone else wants to try now sorting it out that would be fine with me.
