Dawid Weiss resolved LUCENE-5755.
---------------------------------
    Resolution: Later
      Assignee:     (was: Dawid Weiss)

I'm marking this as "later"... I won't have the time to do it and it's really a *major* undertaking (technically doing it and finding a consensus on which system to choose).

>             Project: Lucene - Core
>          Issue Type: Task
>            Reporter: Dawid Weiss
>            Priority: Minor

> I am dissatisfied with how ANT and submodules currently work in Lucene/ Solr. It's not even the tool's fault; it seems Lucene builds just hit the borders of what it can do, especially in terms of submodule dependencies etc.
> I don't think Maven will help much too, given certain things I'd like to have in the build (for example collect all tests globally for a single execution phase at the end of the build, to support better load-balancing).
> I'd like to explore Gradle as an alternative. This task is a notepad for thoughts and experiments.
> An example of a complex (?) gradle build is javafx, for example.
