This is just an attempt to allow maven users to define their pom in
Groovy using builder syntax rather than XML. It doesn't aim to
replace Maven in any way shape or form.
Another goal is to also allow templating of the pom. For example,
googlecode projects have a lot of similarities. With Graven you could
easily specify that this is a GoogleCode project and have the
relevant pom sections declared for you.
This is not a high priority for myself (or Sam I think) so it's not
being worked on that actively. That said, it really is quite trivial
what it is trying to do. Sam spoke to the Maven guys about it and
they were open to the idea of first class support for this if it
worked well enough. Which basically would mean having a pom.groovy
instead of pom.xml and everything would just work like normal.
