Why Maven sucks...

OK, while I'm one who preach the usage of Apache Maven 2, I need to be even with ones who rejects the idea. Here is a list of some reasons while people think that Maven sucks...

  1. Some of the people who maintains the repository were not discipline and not consistent
  2. Not for building leading edge technologies (snapshot build, nightly build, candidate release, alpha, beta, etc)
  3. Not everyone could afford to download the 11GB++ repository
  4. Too bandwidth consuming for firsttimers (or someone who just wants to give a try)
  5. Takes time to setup
  6. (I will add up several thing later...)
