I suspect we would all like to dump jelly ASAP. I've come to realise that my
initial problems, and thus opposition, to maven are due to jelly in a large
part. And I do find ant fustrating too.

What I want to use is a proper java-like (so I don't have to learn anything
new) scripting language (so it doesn't need precompiling). I want
eclipse/ide integration such that it offers completions just like other
coding (so I don't need to go to the website all the time). And I want it to
work the way I expect it to first time (as I don't have time to waste)

Of course wish lists are easy, and I suspect you wouldn't disagree with the
above. As I said, I have no experience with any of the script tools, so I
have to leave the judgement to others :-)
