I don't remember any. Given that Resource as a class and not an interface we are able to add new methods even after 1.7.0 without running the risk of breaking the code of people who implement their own resources. Given that there wouldn't be any code in Ant 1.7.0 that used getURL() we should defer adding the method as well, IMHO. > And, for example, what would we do for resources of > nonstandard "protocols"?
