Looks like Ant is top 'o the enhancements list for their next release.
1. NetBeans 3.2 1.1. Must-have Features 1.1.1. Up-to-date Ant Implementation This is more of an ongoing requirement; the module should always bundle the most recent released Ant version. It should be easy and documented how to upgrade to a different Ant version in-place. Also it would be desirable to use the same XML parser as is provided by the NetBeans core, to avoid conflicts.
