Using ivy for dependency management?

[Thorsten Scherler <th...@juntadeandalucia.es>]

Hi all,

I am wondering whether the project is interested in using ivy for
resolving the dependencies.

I am using ivy in a couple of different java projects that I am involved
with and I have start it to love it.

That would e.g. get rid of "JUnit not found." since it would be resolved
during the build.

I volunteer to set up solr to use ivy to resolve the dependencies if the
project is interested.

I'm open to letting other build systems flourish if folks want them.   
As long as I can "svn co" and build Solr without too much hassle  
(other than installing a build tool and a JDK) I'm happy :)

There is a contingent of Maven freaks in the Lucene world these days,  
and Lucene is getting better Mavenized.   I have a feeling that the  
Mavenization will creep into Solr too.  Let it be. :)
