The main problem with many of the optional SCM tasks (among others) is that no single Ant committer (still) has an environment around to actually test it. What we have now is your patch and your word that it works - and the only test we have ourselves would be "it compiles". If you could any other Starteam user to test your patched version, it would help tremendously. Even then, you'd be bound to waiting for the next Ant release, which may be several months away even if your patches were applied immediately. A Starteam Antlib that could be released separately from Ant would be the best option, but we'd have a hard time getting this released for the same reasons that you have a hard time finding anybody to apply your patch - no current committer could test the code.
