I will slightly disagree with this. I think a more correct statement is, "This then offers the possibility of Xcode building the WO projects managed by Eclipse, and other Java IDE's that use ant." It is the WOProject Ant tasks, rather than Ant itself, that manages the build. And those tasks rely on certain resources that Xcode does not produce or maintain (i.e. the .classpath, the includes/excludes in the .wolips directory. Xcode has a much different view of managing the resources in a project. So adding a file or a component or a framework in Xcode is not going to update the files that WOProject relies on. If Xcode plugins are a possibility, this could be done.
Along these lines, I briefly talked with WO folks about developing (or using WOLips') a common set of Ant tasks for Xcode and Eclipse/ WOLips so that our build systems can be completely interchangeable. I can't think of any reason why Apple would NOT want to get onboard with this request.
