When I was still away from maven, I could not even imagine there is a powerful thing in the world. What does really matter is the idea of global, but not centralized repository.
There are thousands of plugin system in the world, but I would like to regard Maven is the most successful one. I don’t know where this success comes from, and why people want to contribute to such a specific plugin system. But, apparently, people did, and are still doing.
For the finial deployed system, it is alright to have a complicated one and you can establish the system elaborately. But for the development system, from my own point of view, I need to have a simple set up procedure, a short test cycle, and integrated environment. Maven gives me all these.
