Given that, it is possible to create a template based Ant build environment. It's all about adopting and adhering to a common convention that includes user-definable extension points.

As Chris pointed out in the podcast I blogged yesterday, the build is becoming a first class citizen (well, I could name some organisations where it isn't, but they already reap the problems that they've sown). When that happens, things tend to get fixed pretty quick. I think it’s the way forward.

It dictates the file layout and provides canned targets for common tasks, as Maven does, but doesn't try to maintain a dependency registry or overcomplicate your build with a maze of obscure configuration. It's certainly nice to build and deploy without having written a line of build code. Grails seems to get this right.
