I have used Maven 1.1 and 2 for the last 1.5 years, but it always am boggled by the utter complexity of the tool. There are a lot of good aspects about Maven (dependency management, standard tasks etc) but these advantages don’t way up to all the problems. For example: If I want to create a war and an ear, I need to create multiple project. How stupid can you be?

Just adapt your process to Maven, not the other way round.

why should developers be forced to adapt their processes to a tool? surely a buld tool should be easy enough that you dont have to become an expert ina complex tool. maven is a demanding animal, and for those who suffer through it good luck. but Id rather not.
