## Description:
Apache Buildr is a build system for Java-based applications, including support for Scala, Groovy and a growing number of JVM languages and tools. We wanted something that’s simple and intuitive to use, so we only need to tell it what to do, and it takes care of the rest. But also something we can easily extend for those one-off tasks, with a language that’s a joy to use. And of course, we wanted it to be fast, reliable and have outstanding dependency management.
## Issues:
There are no issues requiring board attention at this time.
## Activity:
Our activity has slowed down. We have one interesting discussion slowly going to fix the biggest flaw of Buildr by providing dependency resolution.
## Health report:
The activity is slow, with 2 active committers.
Very little activity on the user or dev list.
We do see that the project is used at large. For example, the latest version has been downloaded over 57000 times since last September.
Last time I reported we have started discussing on the dev list how to improve participation, and have detailed several items for the next release to engage better our users.
This effort is still ongoing.
