One thing I found out was that there's a decent set of Maven Ant tasks that
allow easy deployment of Maven artifacts from Ant:

http://maven.apache.org/ant-tasks/index.html
http://maven.apache.org/ant-tasks/reference.html#Task

I started using these tasks (earlier did manual uploads) because otherwise it
is a pain to try to get all metadata (checksums, file that contains refs to
all versions, needed for version-range dependencies) properly done manually
or using plain Ant tasks.

The only problem I had with the tasks was that for some reason I had to add
them to Ant's global jar directory (most other tasks, such as OSGi wrappers
work just fine when added to project-specific locations).

So at least there's a reasonable way to easily do maven deployments without
absolutely having to start using Maven as the build system.
