Jason Dillon commented on MGROOVY-149:
--------------------------------------
Well... IMO {{mvn groovy:console}} or {{mvn groovy:shell}} has the very nice
property of running Groovy for users that already have Maven installed, but
have not downloaded, extracted and setup environment variables to get groovy to
run.
Another nice property is the Maven download is really small, true it will
download more stuff as needed, but the user only needs to worry about one
download, extract, add-to-path, then after than {{mvn groovy:console}} will
just work.
So I see a lot of value in that.
