So...tell me why you used Saxon?

Seriously, Python, Perl, Cygwin and others are all perfectly valid (IMHO)
open source things. The ant community already loves gump as they view it
as a very extensive test suite. I probably have identified one regression
a week for the last month in Ant alone, and have fixed between half to a
third of them myself.
Meanwhile, what I implemented was 100% XSLT, batch files, shell scripts,
and a little sed. Initially, I also was a little concerned about where it
should go, and the clear consensus was that it was wanted here.
Meanwhile, I certainly am not anti-ant. I'm starting to commit your work
incrementally, and have already made a suggestion on how to approach other
issues that you have encountered with respect to Ant.
