basically, I'm running a bunch of <available>'s, and also some 
<taskdef>'s...I need to find out what's in the source tree, and enable 
some homespun taskdefs.

Hi John,

Can you say more about what's getting set in the sub files that you'd 
want
propagated throughout the build?  You -can- propagate property values
using the <ant> task, but I'd need to know more about what you're 
actually
wanting to do before I could offer up specific advice.

Diane
