Title: In case you haven't seen this yet

Thanks for the update Alex. I didn't read the original article, but this seems like a pretty short synopsis. I'm looking forward to seeing msbuild when it gets closer to release.   As the MSBuild PM, do you know if the team has considered any interop scenarios with NAnt tasks or the NAnt framework. Is this something that would be in the scope of the work you would consider? If not, can you comment on the technical challenges in doing in working either way (nant->msbuild; msbuild->nant, task interop)? ----- Original Message ----- From: Alex Kipman To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 2003 9:24 PM Subject: [nant-dev] In case you haven't seen this yet Hello everyone, At the risk of reliving a very painful subject, I wanted to point the community to the published "chapter 2" of Brent Rectors book entitled Introducing Longhorn for Developers.  The link is here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/Longhorn/understanding/books/rector/default.aspx?pull=/library/en-us/dnintlong/html/longhornch02.asp#longhornch02_topic1 You will note Brent re-wrote the entire section about "Why not Ant/NAnt", and what you see on this link is what you will see printed on the book when it hits your local bookstore.  In other words what was printed in the PDC copy of the book will no longer be printed.  I hope you find the current text to be more precise and especially less adversarial.  Just thought you should know,    Alex Kipman ([EMAIL PROTECTED])    Program Manager    MSBuild Team This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
