Hey Jonathan, thanks for touching base. I'm actually not to
sure, but I would say at one point it was the go to method with
the m2e-android plugin. I know that several places probably
still use maven as their main piece, especially if using
Eclipse.
Long term, I'd love to get better gradle support, using the
buildship project and Andmore, but as most of the committers
here are volunteers and we try to keep it going the best we can
in our spare time. Your best bet would be to reach out to the
maintainers, of the android-maven-plugin. They might have more
concrete numbers. I know the m2e-android plugin currently
isn't being maintained unfortunately.

Please do keep us in the loop on what you find out.
Glad to hear that Robolectric is moving away from the resource
emulation, that was always one of the slower and resource
intensive parts for the framework.

Hey guys,
Robolectric admin here :-)
Just to bring you up to date with what is happening in
Robolectric land in case it influences any design decisions
in your fix. We've moved configuration of manifest,
resources and assets location to a build system API, see
here for details:-
http://robolectric.org/build-system-integration/
This is currently supported in Android Studio / Gradle
3.0 and we have Bazel supporting soon too.
Right now we still deal with raw resources (which should
be merged by the build system ideally) but later this year
we plan on supporting binary resources and deprecating
support for raw resources. This is going to give a more
actuate simulation of Android since we're no longer
concerned with emulating resource merging or aapt behavior.
Robolectric itself will actually be faster although that
work is pushed into the build system.
Do you have any idea what the user base is of folks still
running Eclipse + Maven for Android Dev? We'd ideally not
like to break people with our changes.
Let me know if this is something you are interested in
supporting and I'll be happy to help.
Jonathan
