Maven it is. I'm a big fan of the Maven ant plugin. I'm not as big a  
fan of the full-on Maven, and I'm a whiny Mac user that gets really  
irritated when the UI isn't perfectly Mac-like, so the various Java  
IDEs make me slightly insane (also, I can't get Eclipse to let me put  
my sources where I want to).

But thanks! I'll try Maven!
