Modified: src/main/org/apache/tools/ant Task.java
Log:
Added a new property to task: "description".
It can be used to add a short description of what the particular instance
of the task is doing - instead of/in addition to xml comments.
It can be usefull to display it if a task fails, and it's a good way to
document the file.
