Sorry to barge in like that, but I'd like to understand how the line of what
goes in Ant and what doesn't is drawn exactly... As Erik initially stated,
new tasks are being pushed back outside of Ant, especially the ones
depending on tools external to Ant. This seems to apply precisely to the
proposed <velocity> task, which also seem to have quite a bit of overlap
with http://vpp.sourceforge.net, the latter having followed the
*recommended* 'external' route.

How is <velocity> any different?

I'm not discussing its value and/or quality, just why it goes in when a lot
of other useful tasks are being pushed out, and there's something very
similar already out there.

Thanks, --DD

Even if we'd accept your submission (quite likely, it seems 8-), it
would go into Ant 1.6 which isn't expected to get released too soon
either (middle of the year, maybe).
