I've committed most of the stuff I had in mind, although there are still
a few TODOs in the site documents. Would you mind having a look at those
Hervé?
We also need to decide the URL for the site. If we don't configure
anything it will end up at http://maven.apache.org/maven-ant-tasks/
Is that OK or do we want it at another URL?

Dennis,
I created MANTTASKS-114 to track the issue.
Thanks for doing that!
Did you start any work on this on your side?
I have some sketches and ideas. Also I wrote a little java program that
iterates through a list of Task classes and prints out the different
parameters, to make sure that no parameter is missed.
I was meaning to get back about this to discuss where to put the docs.
My plan is to put them in the 2.0.x branch, since that's what people are
using today. How does that sound?
+1
If we agree I'll commit what I have now and we can work from there.
yes, please
regards,
Hervé

Hi
I'm in the process of converting the Ant builds, at my day job, to use
Maven Ant tasks for dependency management. This is my first contact with
Maven Ant tasks so I gave the doc a thorough reading and made some
corrections and alterations. The doc is currently only one page [1] and
is part of the maven site.
The page is very long and tries to cover everything there is to know
about the Ant tasks. Unfortunately it doesn't cover everything, as I've
seen going through the user list trying to find answers. So I'd like to
make some changes to the documentation.
1. Move the docs from maven site to the Ant tasks, in subversion.
2. Split up the current one page into several more focused pages.
3. Create a reference section, similar in function to the documentation
for Ant, to make it easier for Ant (=non-Maven) users to find their way.
Thoughts, ideas, criticism?
For 3 I thought I'd have a look at how Ant currently generates its own
documentation. One possibility would be to use annotations and create a
Maven plugin to extract those along with Javadoc to create general
documentation for Ant tasks (not just the Maven Ant tasks). This would
work similarly to how the plugin-plugin works on Maven plugins.
Is this a feasible approach or just a waste of time?
