Currently, our application uses more than 40 3rdparty jars. [...] With Ivy, I now have a full accounting of what libraries our project relies on directly. [...] We now have clear understanding of our dependency tree. link:http://houseofhaug.net/blog/archives/2005/04/13/maven-uninstall/[Read more]

Congrats on Ivy.  It really is an excellent piece of coherent and consistent software.  Pretty much everything works as I expected it to, and it supports pretty much everything I've needed.
