I cannot follow, how a build system results in more eyes watching the code or doing other things. And maven-based build-system are horrible to package, on gentoo side, we usually create a build.xml for ant and build that way since maven is way more complex. So from my point of view as packager, i am completly against a move to a more complex build system, while the current one works fine. -- Thomas Sachau Gentoo Linux Developer -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
