----------------------------------------

Replying to [~matthieu] from https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-3225  .

Regarding the gradle POC you did. 
Is that something we can use - can you rebase it on current master? 
I know gradle has some migration functionality build in so it might be the same 
effort to start from scratch. 
I would like to contribute to this, so we can sync + work together on a branch 
once we decide how we create that branch. 
I would create it on apache and sync via personal PR's from each of our git 
repos to this feature branch.
Once we are satisfied we can merge it in master and have both working side 
until we are confident we can drop the maven build.
The final check would be: we are able to release Apache James with Gradle 
instead of Maven.

> Creating an issue to track the process of using Gradle for building Apache

> There have been a few discussions on this topic from multiple parties.
> The main benefit is having faster builds which Maven is unable to provide 
> because of it's limitations on how it approaches build life-cycle and 
> caching.
