I agree as well. How about this:

If I need to change the build, I should only have to change the Ant build
script.  If that breaks the Maven or Gradle build scripts, too bad and folk=
s
who know those build systems will have to react.

Official releases would only include the Ant script and require Ant to
build, not Maven or Gradle or anything else.  Once a release is approved,
Maven folks will have to create whatever Maven users need from the release.
