> Now for the larger question, Does everyone want expression support in
NAnt?

I definitely want it! I need it really badly. Currently I'm unable to check
some things correctly without expressions (without script or external
utility). Expression will be very easy in mine case.

It is:
     <foreach item="String" in="${changes}" delim=" " property="folder">
        <property name="name" value="${folder}.dll"/>
       <ifnot test="endswith('${name}','.Test.dll')">
     ...
       </ifnot>
   </foreach>

very readable (=maintainable), no need to learn script syntax or write any
external code.

summary: I think expression are really needed in Nant.

Just mine 2 cents...
Martin

btw: expression syntax is maybe incorrect here - but it's not important.
