And then, the only reason you don't think much about Ant is that Someone Else wrote a >200 line Ant script for you (that you are required to copy verbatim for each and every WO project you create. How's that for reusability).

But once your environment is properly set up, Maven works great. I started out the easy way—just added a "pom.xml" to my standard frameworks alongside the "build.xml"-files (like Project Wonder does). But eventually, you'll want to use all the amazing features Maven has to offer.
