Thomas,
the included file also requires a top level <project> tag. The error you 
are seeing is an xml error since your file contains:

<property name="configuration" value="release" overwrite="false" />
<property />
...
ie multiple elements at the top level - forming an invalid xml document.
try somthing like :
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project default="" >
        <property name="configuration" value="release" overwrite="false" />
        <property />
        ...
</project>

I jsut re-checked, and I am unable to find any type of bug.
Basically, when I plug the content of the include file into the main
build file, it does work.
If I move it out into it's own separate file (and include it), I get
errors.
This is the error:

This is the main build file started:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project default="build" >
<include buildfile="N:\.dev\deployed\.buildscripts\default.build" />
</project>
And this is the start and end of the included file:
start:
<property name="configuration" value="release" overwrite="false" />
<property name="control.version" value="0.0" overwrite="false" />
<property name="control.release" value="0" overwrite="false" />
<property name="control.build" value="0" overwrite="false" />
<property name="control.smallversion" value="0.0.0" overwrite="false"
/>
end:
<!--

-->
<target name="publish" depends="deploy">
 <if test="${file::exists(nant.project.basedir+'\publish.build')}">
  <echo message="External build file found, executing" />
  <nant buildfile="${nant.project.basedir+'\publish.build'}" />
 </if>
</target>
(naturally the start and end parts are not working on their own).
The interesting thing is that if I basically copy/paste the include file
into the main build file, replacing the <include element, then suddenly
all things are working.

	Looks like it might be a bug in your included build file.
	 
	This is exactly what I do, except I have the project's build
files setting a lot of properties, and the master build file makes all
its decisions based on those properties.  
	 
	I'm not sure how overriding targets would even work.
	 
	Thanks,
	Ryan

	Hello, 
	I am trying to get into orgainizing my nant files more. 
	I have a central nant file that all our projects should share. 
	Is it viable to use an empty shell file (possibly with
do-nothing targets that the projects fill out) and have it include the
core targets?
	How is the syntax? 
	I just took the whole XML content to the external file, and did
remove project tag. 
	The new build file tries to include this: 
	<?xml version="1.0"?> 
	<project default="build" > 
	<include
buildfile="n:\.dev\deployed\.buildscripts\default.build" /> 
	</project> 
	Sadly I get an exception?
