Hi, Johannes;

Are you going to completely remove the ant build ?
I remember a discussion about kicking ant in favor
of maven-2 some time ago. At that time there was
strong evidence to keep ant although i do not rember
the exact reasoning.

Are you aware of the fact that ant is also used during
runtime and the ant jars are also deployed to WEB-INF/lib ?
Are you going to remove this dependency also ?
And how would the normal build change with Maven-3 ?

regards,
Hussayn
