If we have some interests, I would be more than happy to re-engage with PP and get that maven transition done. While it's not a huge step I think it will entice developers.
My experience has been that Maven can be a bit of a Marmite transition - some people love it, some people hate it. Personally, I'm quite fond of Maven, but I've certainly never been put off using or contributing to a project because it uses ant.
However clearer structure & modularising the codebase is something that I'm sure everyone would support, whatever build framework we use. With our limited resources, would it be wise to focus on these initially?
I don't really have a say in the matter, but while I'd be quite happy to see a transition to Maven, I'm not sure it's a particularly pressing issue for the project at the moment. Sort of organising the deckchairs on the titanic? ;-)
