Gant is having very little development these days, anything that does
happen is driven by the needs of Grails.  For build, see Gradle.

A thing you have forgotten in this list is GPars which brings dynamic
control of concurrency and parallelism to the JVM.  Although is has
dependencies on jsr166y, extra166y and JCSP, it is more than just a
Groovy wrapper to those Java frameworks.
