Mostly stuff on the Ant1.9 list, in particular the VFS layer and the TypeInfo 
thing (well, the whole task/datatype lifecycle really, from writing, packaging, 
doc generation, deployment, instantiation, configuration, validation, service 
discovery, ..., to execution.  Task testing too).

You should advertise it more.  It's very impressive work.

Myrmidon would be an excellent place to try some of the stuff I want to do, 
particularly given that it's incremental stuff, rather than stand-alone.  Also, 
having the ant1 tasks there will be handy, to evaluate what impact the changes 
have on the task writer.

Right now I'm cranking away on a VFS proposal, so won't be making changes to 
Myrmidon any time soon.

I'm pretty keen to help out, so that would be handy - for me at least.
