The thing is, nant should be working fine - I'm using it myself on the development branch. So it's not unsupported -
just not working for some folks for as yet unidentified reasons. And as we've seen, since xbuild is there anyway most
people just end up using that instead.

I see the build instructions on the Opensim wiki now mention xbuild, although

been building Opensim for literally years now, and every so often I get hit
with an undocumented change. Then I have to
go through all kinds of hoops to figure out how to fix it. I’m not a .NET
developer (although my son is), so I know
just enough to be dangerous.
I appreciate the help on this list, usually I have to go hang out on the IRC
channel.
Thanks all!

My steps for building tend to be as follows.
# xbuild /t:clean
# mono bin/Prebuild.exe /clean
# git pull
# ./runprebuild.sh
# xbuild
# ./revtag.sh (a tiny script that updates the .bin/.version file)
Then I'm ready to move on the the upgrade. Since you're building from tarballs,
which tend not to accrue that same sort
of kipple that pulling from git does, my process probably isn't as applicable.
The cleaning steps might be useful when
retrying a compile that experiences hiccups, though.
I haven't used Nant in a very long time now... my understanding is that the
Mono team deprecated it as the official
build tool quite some time ago. It is still in common use among people
compiling of OpenSim due to various inertial
factors (I think the NUnit tests are tailored for Nant in some fashion, maybe).
But for those of us just compiling to
get binaries, xbuild is probably the way to go these days.

I use xbuild too. Nant does not seem to work anymore.
