this is a little problem. I dont think it is good idea to have property with such name but expression certainly breaks compatibility here... :( > - corresponds with the MSbuild implementation.

Maybe this is reason why I dont like it :) I prefer clear languages as c# or Pascal or Python... .build files are for administrators and they could not be programmers in some cases.
