---------------------------------------------------------
I take it back. I'm seeing some weird behavior when using '!'
The delivered ivy.xml file is correct (i.e. the negated confs are not present).
However, the actual artifacts for the included confs are not being published
(I'm testing the publish task).
When I get some time, I'll try to isolate the problem and a scenario to test.

> Key: IVY-1191
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1191
> Project: Ivy
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 2.1.0
> Reporter: Phil Clay
> Priority: Minor
>
> For specifying confs for resolve/retrieve/publish, you can either
> * explicitly specify confs (e.g. "build,deploy,test"), or
> * specify all (e.g. "*"), or
> * specify all public (e.g. "*(public)"), or
> * specify all private (e.g. "*(private)")
> All of these work on the principle of inclusion. i.e. only include those
> configurations I have specified.
> I would like the ability to select confs based on exclusion. i.e. Include
> everything, except the ones I have explicitly stated.
> The reason is that our build process, by default, builds a LOT of stuff. Our
> developers have the options of turning off certain things to make the builds
> faster. (For example, our build publishes instrumented artifacts for
> gathering code coverage data during qa cycles. It would be nice to be able
> to turn off the "instrumented" conf without having to know how to turn on
> everything but the "instrumented" conf)
> I'll propose one option. (There are probably several ways to do this...)
> In the conf string, use the - character to indicate exclusion. For example:
> * conf="*,-instrumented" would include everything except the instrumented
> conf
> * conf="*(public),-instrumented" would include all public confs except the
> instrumented conf
> * conf="build,deploy,test,instrumented,-instrumented" would only include
> build, deploy, test. I'd like this case to be handled, so we can have a
> default inclusion string (which may include everything "*", or be a specific
> list of inclusions "build,deploy,test,instrumented"), but also be able to
> negate certain confs simply by concatinating an exclusion string
> "-instrumented".
