Java Build Tools: Ant vs. Maven

A very interesting (some kind of polemic but logical correct) article on the endless discussion on java build tools - ant vs. maven. Some cites:

"That’s it! Those are the only choices I can recommend! Because you never, ever, under any circumstances want to use Maven!"

"Maven builds are an infinite cycle of despair that will slowly drag you into the deepest, darkest pits of hell (where Maven itself was forged). "
