Re: [Exist-development] gradle vs maven

[Adam R. <ad...@ex...>]

Yes I have, but that doesnt help really!!! What are you saying? Most
of the file processing we do is XSLT based, Maven supports XSLT. The
other file processing is properties processing, Maven also supports
that. Then of course there is building a package of some sort
(WAR/IzPack etc), also Maven supports that.
So what doesnt it support that we need exactly?
