Another non committer here.
I don't like $(x) because it looks too much like ${x}, although I
suppose I could get used to that. Therfore, I am drawn to
@{x}. ${attribute:x} is possible but way too much typing for my taste.
Abbreviated to ${att:x} or ${attrib:x} my negativity level goes down
accordingly.
Before "voting", though, could someone list all the conflicting usages
with other systems that ant must interface with.

Subject: Re: [VOTE] macrodef - do attributes as properties or
substitutions
OK, how do we want to implement <macrodef> attributes:
current
[ ] as textual substitution ~ 4
[ ] as "real" Ant properties ~ 2
undecided ~ 1
If macrodef attribute are to be implements as substitutions, what should
be the notation? (where x is the attribute name)
[ ] as ${x} (look like ant properties)
[ ] as $(x)
[ ] as @x
[ ] as ${attribute:x}
[ ] as @{x}
[ ] some thing else
