Why not move the production of the software to Maven and leave the 
assembly in Ant.
That would give you the best of both worlds.

How can I do that?

For instance, I have a template for working with Spring Security in LDAP environment and another template when working when Active Directory; the customer properties file defined the name of the template to use, but in both cases, the result file needs to be applicationContext-security.xml. How can i achieve this? Or is there a way to define conditional profiles so that in the customer .properties file, I would say LDAP or AD, and based on that value, different profile would be used?
