Optimistically I'll agree with this ;)

I'd add:
Something a bit more abstract / less ant-specific about the build process, 
designing projects so that they can be built/managed easily. (For example, 
most of us on the list *know* that source and classes should be seperate, 
and that you build to a seperate directory: a fair number of the people I 
work with don't bother with this... and run into all sorts of problems as a 
result.)

A small chapter on make (as a comparison to ant) would be nice, too.

  Some people say that I'm 
superficial, but that's just on the surface.
