Good luck with that :)

When migrating Lenya 2.2 to Maven we had to relocate various classes, 
change module dependencies etc. to make it compile. I don't say that it 
is impossible, but I think it will be very hard to do this 
incrementally. We should at least consider the risk that the codebase 
will be unusable for a while.
