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. > Is copying a couple of files really jumping thru hoops ? The > config file > options I mentioned above would eliminate this step anyway. 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 > Personally I find the taskdef mechanism a bit clunky for NAnt. 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). ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: ValueWeb: Dedicated Hosting for just $79/mo with 500 GB of bandwidth!
