Please, don't change the build to require Maven! At the risk of starting a flame war - and I know there are many people out there who are using Maven with great success - but our experience was it is way too complicated and complete overkill for a build process! We tried to use it on our project a couple of years back, it was a disaster that wasted hours and hours of development time, in the end gave up and reverted to Ant. Just doing the simplest things we had to use the maven-ant-plugin which made life twice as hard for no benefit. By all means *support* Maven, but please don't force it on those of us who don't want it when we occasionally need to build Cobertura.
