Pete,
Yes, from your point - it doesn't really make sense. But if you take some
time and have a look at my new task wait, you can see the reason why.
<wait for="3600000" failonerror="yes">
<waitStatus every="600000">
<echo>current build is still working [Msg Nr. 1]</echo>
</waitStatus>
<available file="inhibit" failonerror="yes" not="yes"
property="unimportant">
<available file="enable" failonerror="yes" property="unimportant">
</wait>
Regards
Thomas
