Thanks, Martin.

I posted a question a few days ago but got no response. My trouble is not so 
much with running the maven ant task, that works fine (I use it to fetch 
dependencies and build class paths).

What I'd like to do is make use of the "useScope" attribute, which doesn't seem 
useful to me, at least the way I understand its use. Ideally, I'd be able to 
specify each dependency with its required scope, then outside of that 
<artifact:dependencies> tag, refer to it with different useScope values.

But as it is, it seems useless, because it can only be specified once per 
dependencies tag.

Can someone elaborate on how it's supposed to be used?

Thanks!
