Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-2019:
----------------------------------------
I'd recommend you just pull in ant-1.7 or (soon) the ant1.7.1 jar and use them
directly. That is where the classes originate. They are designed to work
outside Ant builds. Creating and releasing snapshots is bad because
-ASF doesnt like projects releasing code using other project's snapshots (its
related to signoff). Certainly were I on your PMC, I'd be vetoing any 1.0
release that was stil using the commons-cli snapshot.
-you can't build maven/ivy dependency metadata XML files that dont refer to
the unstable snapshot repository
- which makes it impossible for downstream users to reliably recreate your
execution environment.
