This is just complaining, where is the better approach? If we are going to work on a build system, its not going to be a custom system without any community like jbossbuild was. So there are bugs/issues with maven dependency mgmt. Fix them. That is why we decided to work with maven as opposed to continue down the jbossbuild black hole.
