Seriously. Maven is a horrible implementation of bad ideas. I believe someone, somewhere had (perhaps still has) a vision for Maven that was sensible, if not seductive. But the actual implementation of Maven lacks any trace of such vision. In fact, everything in Maven is so bad that it serves as a valuable example of how not to build software. You know your build is awesome when it works the opposite of Maven.
I honestly have no opinion whatsoever on the subject of that post, but he sure can produce an entertaining nerdrage. :)
