Title: Different types of document builds

Hello everybody,

I hear a lot about using Ant to build docbook documentation. Certainly, the support for the open source tools for Ant is very good. I would like to ask the list if anybody has had experience with other types of build systems like MSBuild or Maven (not using the Ant plug-in) . When I search the web, I find lots of very good documentation about Ant, but only a very little bit for Maven and nothing for MSBuild. Has anybody given these a try?

Thanks, Scott
