Something like that, yeah, but there's some problems:
1) We don't know what source-file maps to what target-file.
2) We don't need any subclasses to the ant-task. Extractor and Writer
will be pluggable instead.

I'm more towards having a method Extractor.getLatestModified() that the
Ant-task will compare to Writer.getLatestModified(). That way we're not
making any assumptions what-so-ever about the inner workings of the
Writer and the Extractor.

But we'll see how this turns out later on.

Great! In the meantime I'll implement the stuff we need for attributes
inside attributes, then we'll replace that with xdox when that is done.

I think I've straighted it out more with my answer to Mark Pollack,
here:

I went back and reread it, I wasn't making much sense. :-)
