I'm using NAnt for all of my builds as well. MSBuild is just too icky for me -- functional programming is a good match for build dependencies, but MSBuild carries the idea too far (take ItemGroups as an example). In the end, it just makes you jump through hoops and kills readability. All imho, of course.Hi Folks... we rely heavily on NAnt for our builds. But, it seems that development and activity here has really slowed down. Have people moved to MS Build or is NAnt just at that stage where it is stable enough so people don't have problems with it and it doesn't need a lot of changes?
I don't think NAnt itself needs any and I can't remember a single bug ever surfacing in the time I used it. But adding some new stuff definitely wouldn't hurt, preferably through NAntContrib, as others mentioned.
So far, I've taken care of my biggest itches by writing my own task library (https://devel.nuclex.org/sideprojects/svn/tasks/Nuclex.NAnt.Tasks/trunk), containing tasks for 7-Zip, Subversion and for removing nodes from XML documents. I'd love to contribute any of those to NAntContrib or whatever NAnt development goes, but it has grown pretty silent again recently.
