Re: [nant-dev] Criteria for next release

Not quite so easy. There is some code that uses P/Invoke and will fail - 
or at least give ugly warnings when run on mono. Ideally we should 
probably re-code these areas so that everything thats not in the Win32 
namespace runs fine on mono when built on ms .net.

Can't you just use the binaries from .NET 1.0 on Mono, too ?
You could just ignore some tasks, and it should be fine...

That is a negative Jason. We will always distribute source with our
   

binaries. We will
 

also always include help/documentation.

We will also not distribute multiple, and redundant, binaries. There is no
   

reason to
 

distribute 1.0 and 1.1 compiled versions of nant.

Our goal is to support all .net platforms and frameworks. Right now NAnt
   

has support for
 

the ms .net framework 1.0 and 1.1, as well as limited support for mono (as
   

mono
 

progresses our available features are also growing). Our goal is to
   

provide binaries
 

that meet the minimum framework requirements. In the future I expect our
   

compiled
 

binaries will run on mono out of the dist directly, just like they do on
   

the ms .net
 

frameworks.

John,

Thanks for taking up this task...any further progress on releasing the
first beta or release candidate?
My vote would be for one distribution package with the binaries for each
.NET framework  in separate directories.  I don't think that we should
include the documentation or source in the distribution package.  We
should instead, direct users to the website for documentation.  I would
include a readme doc that explains the basics of getting things setup
(for the newbie), but again, refer to a task reference on the web.
From my perspective, if I want the source, I will just get it from SF
CVS.
