I am wondering if someone found a work-around (other than making the path name shorter) for the "path too long" error when running Nant. Our directory structure may be two to three levels and we like to use descriptive names.
Here is the output I get that shows the error, just in case you have no idea what I am talking about (smile):

Thanks!
