A bit more consistancy with the tasks would be good - I'm always writing <javac/> followed by <copy/> and can never remember that the first uses "srcdir" and "destdir" whereas the second uses "todir" with the source directory only specified in a fileset. I know its a bit petty but I would have thought that new users would find it easier to use with more consistent attributes.
Also - although it is pretty much covered implicitly by the following two entries from http://jakarta.apache.org/ant/ant2/requested-features.txt, the vague notion of "better subproject handling" could be added for later debate: * create the concept of workspace so that projects can be built in a DAG and thus enable projects like catalina/tomcat to have an easy build process. It also helps CJAN to a lesser degree and would partially solve the JARs in CVS thing. * support more control over the properties that are going to be passed to subprojects (modules) (just trying to ensure that it/they don't slip through the net) Rob
