Jamake - my new born Open Source project

Hello, guys.

Once me and my friend, we have counted number of languages, dialects and syntaxes that you have to be familiar with to handle one simple web site project and I was amazed. We got numbers like 10 to 15. Java, HTML, XML (minimum 5 dialects), SQL, PHP, Python, Javascript, Ruby, Annotations... This is crazy. It is too much even for very genius programmer.

Then I thought "why ANT?". Why build project is not described in our lovely java? What about pure Java Build Tool?

Here I want to discuss with you possibility of building pure Java Build tool which will be able to do everything ANT, MAVEN, BUILDR or whatever build tool does, plus it will get all strength of Java as programming language. Imagine writing build project with all intellisense Eclipse does for your java classes, with all automation you already have for java, with simple, serial and very familiar code, with availability of thousands of useful libraries and tools.
