Great piece of work! Very helpful for Nant newbies, IMO.
However, the description you gave for the gac task is not correct. The
layout of the GacTask have changed somewhat, while the documentation has
remained the same ;-). Instead of an boolean uninstall attribute, there
is now a action attribute, which can have three values: install (the
default), overwrite, or uninstall. So instead of using
<gac assembly="filename" uninstall="true"/>
One should use
<gac action="uninstall" assembly="filename"/>
You can also use a fileset of assemblies:
<gac action="overwrite">
<assemblies basedir="somedir">
<includes name="**/*.dll"/>
</assemblies>
</gac>
Thanks again,
Arjen

Subject: [Nant-users] This is a mail that explains the various nAnt
tasks and their progress
Dear All,
I have been following nAnt over the last two months and I thought maybe
by sending a digest of the various commonly needed tasks their
development status and how to use them.
[snip]
GAC Task
Helps you add/remove/overwrite assemblies from the global assembly.
Installing
<gac assembly="<filename>.resources.dll"/> or
<gac assembly="<filename>.dll"/>
Uninstalling
<gac assembly="filename.resources"
uninstall="true"/> or
<gac assembly="filename" uninstall="true"/>
Note: To add files to the global assembly they must be strongly signed
