Uuuh, that sounds awesome!!
Ok, proposal:
- Edwards donates the code to us (this means APL on top,
org.apache.tools.ant package names)
- we place this into the jakarta-ant CVS (where you like it most)
- give Edwards commit access
- modify the ant build.xml to create two distributions: ant-plain and
ant-for-forte
What do you think?
