I plan on taking a look at this in the near future, particularly in the
context of this bug:
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7926
I haven't tried it yet - but any thoughts on whether you just fixed that in
the process too?
Nice work, Conor.
Speaking of "future" - what is the time table for future Ant 1.5 betas or
final release? I'll take a look at the bug list this coming week to see if
there are any I can address.
