The Build Process

In this session we're going to take a look at the Java build process. Rather than a single presentation we're going for a panel format this time with 4 speakers each covering a different aspect of the build process. Each speaker will talk for about 10 minutes and have about 5 minutes for questions and then after all the talks we'll open the floor for general discussion. Our aim is to allow some comparison between competing tools such as ant & maven and allow you to share your experience of best practices related to building java software.
