Lots of people seem to be moving over to Gradle now? I don't suppose anyone can provide an opinion on Gradle vs. Maven?

Personally I've always found Maven to be a pain, but a necessary evil for larger projects / teams. I've tried using it for smaller personal projects and the benefit wasn't worth the time invested.

I'd rather not invest more time learning Ivy / Gradle / anything else until someone can convince me it's not the same old crap under a different label...
