The primary goal of Ant is a Java based build system. I'm happy to have the

-1. You can't provide support for something which doesn't really exist yet.
It is not clear to me what CJAN is or will become and how it relates to
GUMP. I think we need to have some discussion on what CJAN is or should be
first. It may just end up being an ant task without particular support
required.
