I don't know if this matters with respect to committing the patch but I am 
still 
working on getting more test coverage, I am about 25% code coverage right now. 
I'd like to get that number up to at least 70%. 


I have not spent any time on the build integration yet, it's on my list of 
things to do right after the tests.

Sincerely,

Jon

I think we should put the code into its own jar. The ant jar is then only 
needed 
as a dependency when building that jar, so people can always exclude that 
target 
if they want

I think it needs to be in its own jar. It has a dependency on ant, and I don't 
think we want to add that dependency to any of the current, widely used jars.

One thing we could perhaps do is provide an ant task that generates a single 
huge "poi-for-ant" jar which includes all the dependencies to make the install 
easier.
