Let me see if I get this correctly, sounds as if you could easily do
this with a regexp-mapper. (1) You have to use Ant 1.3 or later and
(2) need jakarta-regexp or jakarta-ORO in your CLASSPATH, then do
something like this
<copy todir="mydestdir">
<fileset dir="mysrcdir">
<include name="castor*/src/main/org/exolab/**" />
</fileset>
<mapper type="regexp" from="castor.*/src/main/(.*)" to="\1" />
</copy>
The include will make sure that you don't copy any files you don't
need and the mapper will strip off the castor*/src/main/ part.
