Thanks Martin,





Thanks

Maven and Ant are both great tools - they are great for building a Release and Deployment platform, but in the are not that in themselves. I probably should have said that I am looking for a web based system, than can use whatever - maven, ant, make, shell... but provides a friendly environment to track releases, publish software, etc...
