darthcamaro writes "internetnews.com is running a story on the release of Apache Maven 1.0 this week.

'Maven has a long history of pushing out beta after beta, so this is definitely an important release,' Jason Van Zyl, Maven architect release manager, told internetnews.com. 'For users it means that they will have something reliable now for their production builds.' From some of the comments that Van Zyl makes in the story though, it look like the upcoming 2.0 version will be the real killer app, though 1.0 is certainly nothing to sneeze at either..."

The parent post is right-on.

I also am a manager of sorts (CIO) and we are currently farming out 20-30% of our work (mostly backend and server development) to India.

We once standardized our webapp on Apache (Maven included) with MySQL but have since moved to IIS on Advanced Server 2003 with Oracle 10g on the servers.

I must tell you something. Please don't blame me I'm just the messenger:

Your sense of humour is inexistant.

Now there might be several reasons:
1. You never had one. This situation is not desperate, but will require some work.
2. You lost it. Go get it!

Cheers
