Sounds great. Looking forward to it.
For me, the big omission from the current nunit task has been /label
support so I can figure out which failing test produced the exceptions
in our 2MB of test/build output.
I have had a look at the branch, but it doesn't look like it supports
/label. Is that correct?
Additionally, while I don't use the style task, I notice you aren't caching
the compiled XSL transform between runs. This means you will incur a
compile on every invocation. This will kill performance for users
transforming many files.

Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning
Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing
also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service.
