Those vetos are sooo old. I wonder if it'd still be vetoed, particularly since we've had things like maven come along to demonstrate how much more powerful it can be to define projects in high-level terms. Something we've done in myrmidon, is to make the project model as pluggable as possible. So, even if, say, project/target inheritance is vetoed, it is easy enough for someone to write their own project model that added it in. They could then chuck it in an antlib and share it with others. A decent templating solution might be a good middle ground between the ant1 model, and built-in project/target inheritance. It could provide the tools you'd need to put together inheritance, without affecting the core project model. -- Adam -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
