We use this [embed] feature so that we can transform a template and import the result, all in one swoop, as has already been described here and it seemed to be a useful feature.
Let me just repeat what I said in an earlier mail. If you rely on an unreleased feature then you do so at a risk that the feature may morph or disappear. This is a risk you have chosen to accept and not the Ant
That's true for almost any software project, and not only unreleased features :-)
I know, I know, can't someone lobby in peace? ;-P
In case the top-level order proposal is not accepted or if <import> will not be accepted or accepted with different behavior - Nicola can
still use the embed proposal or a fork of it ( I plan to have it match
the behavior of what gets accepted in ant16 ).
There is a need for an import system or equivalent, so I'm confident that a similar feature will eventually make his way in Ant.
If/when it happens we will switch to that, and use the embed proposal in the meantime; if not I'm quite sure that we can keep our import version as is being done now with the embed proposal.
I think the real important thing is to find the best solution - if that would break Centipede or will be different than what embed does is less important ( as long as it is a better solution ).
Yes :-)
As long as I'm enabled to do what I need in Centipede, I don't care how it's done.
Anyway it goes, if anyone can show me a better solution I'd be very happy :-)
If not, I'm happy still :-)
Ant RULES! :-) And Centipede is not bad either, eh? ;-)
