Hi Jose, having such a thing would have the major benefit hof being able to publish SNAPSHOTS of the compiler automatically. I think this would be a major breakthrough for bleeding edge developers ... simply referencing org.apache.flex.compiler:falcon-compiler:pom:4.13.0-SNAPSHOT would allow you to use the latest nightly build version with no need to manually update anything :-)
I also saw that you seem to be struggling with Antlr ... it's a real beast and I could see that you too gave 4.x a try and reverted to 3.x ... I use that in all of my projects too :-) But why are you mixing both antlr versions? Seems you are using Antlr2 for some and Antlr3 for other grammar files. Probably I could help with the grammar files as well as with the setup, if you are having any trouble. Just tell me what the problem is and I'll try to help sort that out as fast as possible.

I just continue the original initiative, started by Carlos Rovira in order to mavenized the falcon project from their build process. Regarding the group id name you mentioned, I don't have any problem to adopt your proposal. I'm open to get help from you and others like Frank Wienberg, whose self offered to participate it too, due to I'm pretty busy (with chaotic mind), at last times after my first son was born, this causes that my effort on this work will a really hard defiance, due I'm working on it at my little ocio time. Well, after say this... I'll keep on working on it, taking in account your comments, and trying to maintain the efforts synchronized with all of you.
