Yeah, I've seen this (time/date failures)posted before. It doesn't show up in my builds, or the nightly one, but people are seeing it consistently. If you can track this done it would be very helpful :) On a related note, we really need to beef up the unit tests. That is definitely

I have to disagree on this point. Not necessarily in this case but in general. Adding more options is not better than working out what the right way to do it is. A good article, thanks for the link. IMO, It depends on the type of application -- and the type of user. It also depends on how those

Hi Gerry, I agree with you that adding an attribute like 'ignore_failures' should definitely avoided. Please have a look at my updates to the DeleteTask that I sent earlier today. These updates correspond with how Ant currently works, and no, I'm not saying that we should do everything
