I am currently working on XML-izing the Ant manual, and I was wondering about whether or not I could skip the deprecated tasks (e.g. copyfile, copydir, etc.)? Given that these XML-ized docs aren't going to be in the Ant 1.3 release, but should be ready for the 1.4 release, I am essentially asking whether the deprecated tasks will be removed completely from 1.4. I'm also asking because I'm lazy, and there are *a lot* of documents to convert! :-)
BTW, I am using Anakia and the jakarta-site2 module, so the Ant manual will have the same L&F as the jakarta website. I am also going to set things up to make a copy of the Ant manual in JavaHelp format, thus allowing it to be easily accessed from within Antidote. I've already spoken with Simeon about this, and he indicated it the integration shouldn't be difficult. I think generating PDF copies of the manual, as well as a copy that can be downloaded as a single large HTML file (some folks like that) should also be fairly easy. Regards, Chris Todd
