I said that the java world has rallied around maven _repos_.

Ivy uses maven repos. So your 200 developers _have_ in fact embraced
maven repos like most people. It is the only package repository game
in town. :)

I think Ant + Ivy is a very nice solution for Java. If there was a DRY
way to adapt it to multi-module clojure I would try that too.  I think
"Ties" is probably closure to what I want though, if it were brought
up to date.
