Dodging the issue I see. How sad. Especially when one sees what's get "dumped" to 1.5 all the time by following ANT-dev. You're not really +0 it seems to me, just finding excuses for not appearing -1. And the silence of other -1's is also so telling I'm afraid. So much for the community aspect... That product-specific optional tasks get pushed back to the product they support is fair, but in this case it's just not right. --DD

The tasks are already available so its not as though having them in the core is mandatory. Dropping them into a build file is only one <taskdef> to get all ant-contrib tasks defined - and placing a single tiny JAR in ANT_HOME/lib. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dominique Devienne" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Ant Users List'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, April 30, 2002 12:35 PM Subject: RE: "if" task > Thank you, Diane.
