Hi Eric, Thanks for your reply, that is similar to those I already received. My post was long enough, so I did not say that we have hundreds of programmers and a lot of projects, ranging from the smallest to the largest you can think of. The languages and build tools used are very many, so getting a common solution is not easy. Java programmers use Maven, of course, and none of them asked for the feature I am requesting; the others, i.e. the most, do not even know what maven is. Ivy? Yes, it could be a good solution, but we should be prepared to spread its knowledge throughout the company. Training courses, as we did for SVN, or e-learning could be useful. It would be hard to convince those low level programmers who manage firmware or those who write embedded applications for linux or android, anyway. We will see...
