I can only speak for the companies that I work for, and Maven has only been adopted in pockets, not broadly due to the way my company is organized -- development is not under one division/person. And we are not primarily a development shop. I would expect that Sonatype could talk more broadly about Maven's adoption at E*Trade, eBay, Overstock, Intuit, Qualcomm, etc. My personal opinion (and it is shared by many of the active people on this list) is that jumping in with your first Maven project as a "big Ant migration" is the worst possible way to get started with Maven and is nearly guaranteed to fail.
