Ian,

First, thanks for humoring me on this.  I'm not sure whether I should
apologize for going on about this.  I'm new here.  My original impetus
for joining the list was that taskdef is exactly what I wanted and I
couldn't find it w/o hassle.

So I'd have to preserve "my" part of the config file when I update Nant,
instead of preserving my *Tasks.dll.  I'm not sure there's a gain.

Same problem, different representation.  And it's not just "a couple of
files".  It could be a whole bunch of dll's from different sources, in
different versions.

Also, is it me or is there a problem w/ the copying of the new build of
a customTasks.dll into ${Nant.Location} while nant is running, holding
the target dll?

Also also, my point is:  why subtract from Nant.Core?  Flexibility is
good. You say

To each her own.  taskdef suits my entreprise's strategies better and I
don't understand the top-down decision of subtracting it from the core.

We've probably said enough at this point.  Again, thanks for your
persistence.

/Jean

P.s., is it me or does this list hiccup? (I get many same messages).
