I'd like to possibly contribute to the Groovy community, but right now I'm pretty consumed with FlexUnit4 and a couple other side projects. As I get into the Groovy build process more, I'm sure I'll being digging into the guts of everything much more. It sounds like Grails and Spring Flex will have some tight integration coming up in future releases, so you're dream may come true. Thanks for the link. @Brett – Thanks for stopping by.

Here's that IDE link for your readers: http://blog.springsource.com/2009/08/06/springsource-tool-suite-210-now-available/ FYI: You have to pick the right one(s) containing [incomplete] Groovy support. Hope you blog some more on Flex + Grails + Maven. I agree with everything you said minus some things that never occurred to me. Someone like you should join the Grails team and help them straighten out their Maven support. It would be nice if I could type 'mvn jetty:run' or 'mvn grails:run-app' and have it just work! In the meantime I've also had to resort to some unfortunate hacking. I have a dream that some day we could have a project containing *.as, *.mxml, *.groovy, *.java (perhaps no xml?!) wicket *.html templates, etc. and if I followed conventions, I could just type 'mvn jetty:run' and expect the project to "just work." I'd type 'mvn clean install' and expect it to just build. Wouldn't that be great? Well it isn't so out of the question and I think Maven should have been embraced by Grails sooner. I'm watching for STS to mature into possibly the best Grails IDE... thanks for sharing Brian.

That's great to hear about the STS Grails support, I'll have to go digging for the link though, I wasn't able to find it after a quick look. @Antoine – Thanks for stopping by.

There is a distribution of STS that includes the new Grails plug-in (still alpha, but usable). It is a small link on the download page. I felt like you about IDE, I can't wait to see the final version of the Groovy plug-in. An interesting feedback, thank you.
