I will change this to +1 on the condition that scripting works with proxies and passes proxies to engine for interpretation. This will have 0 effect on core and will still allow alsorts of scripting to be useful. >----------------------------- > >>> * separate tasks into .tsk jars somehow.

Essentially it consists of possibly the following things * cross-buildfile dependencies * possibly cross-buildfile property access * sharing of "execution stack" (ie which tasks are already executed etc) * hierarchial scoping of properties (including const, overidable etc) * somethingelse????
