No worries. What we already have is very, very cool. Support for the nested
classpath element would be great, but even without it ExcelAnt is functional
and it is certainly OK to include it in the beta.

I plan to spend some time to implement support for the classpath element. Hope
to get it done by April 1, the scheduled date of 3.8-final.
