Hi Ian, << totally. I have been meaning to move about 6 tasks into Nnt.DotNet ( gac, xsd etc ) and some others into NAnt.Win32 ( comRegister etc ) First priority was to get everything compiling. We can move tasks to their appopriate namespaces as needed. However I would still consider tasks like starteam optional - apologiesto those starteam users who consider them crucial. >>
Humm.... That sounds much better. Still, I'd personally prefer not to end with something like Nant.Optional :) I believe we could move these into their own assemblies and then just do whatever we want in how to build them (the organization thingie seems to be creeping up again :P). Anyway I'm guessing the real problem is what should go on in the basic distribution.... << re <rant> I hear you and hopefully this will be the last of the re-structuring for a good while. I think the code base is cleaner for it and it will help us going forward. I apologise for the inconvenience to task writers. However it took only around 3 hours to get all of NAntContrib ( 48 tasks ) compiling. Granted I have more familiarity with the nant sources and what has changed than most task writers so I'd be happy to put together a checklist for moving tasks to compile to the latest nant. >> I also tried moving the sources last night but got a little bored after around 1 hour... Had most of it compiling, too, but then again, I'm fairly familiar with both Nant and NAntContrib (heck, I wrote my fair share of the tasks in NantContrib, after all). The checklist sounds like a very good idea! << re version number - like many open source projects we've just kinda been bumping it every time there is a release. Personally I think that with the recent addition of fileset references, cvs tasks and multiple framework support NAnt is getting close to feature complete. After the upcoming release I propose that we gather a list of required features for 1.0 and start setting up a timeframe. You are right - nant has been out there for quite some time now and is used by more and more people. Its getting stable enough that we can stop making re-structuring changes that will break existing tasks - unless there is really good reasons for adding them. >> That sounds like a real treat. -- Tomas Restrepo [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
