Regarding loading zip files as well as jar files, your request is a duplicate 
of issue#4583, which is marked as a WONTFIX. Oracle and Apple quicktime are 
the only people that distribute java stuff with a .ZIP extension, and we take 
the view that they should read the Sun docs and start using the JAR file 
format, which is ZIP with some standardisation on META-INF folder content. 
Renaming the files is the workaround. Why not submit bugreps to oracle 
saying "oracle distros dont workj with ant "?

On the subject of task loading, we agree something better has to be done. 
Dunno about recursive load of subdirectory content -could you write the batch 
file to do that on a win95 box? I dont think it's that easy. 

For loading your own tasks. erik pointed you at <taskdef> ; this takes a 
properties file which lets you bulk define a whole suite of tasks. You only 
need one taskdef per package. 

I am tempted to mark as wontfix, though submitting two requests in one 
complicates such resolutions
