Yes, that sounds interesting. But you have to keep an eye on licenses ... Ant's fetch.xml could download the optional libraries ... So just dreaming more ... <project xmlns:antunit="ivy:http://ant.apache.org/antlibs/antunit/"> <antunit:assertTrue/> </project> - the new "ivy:" protokol (compared to "antlib:") loads the AutoLoad configuration from the given URL+"autoload.xml" * http://ant.apache.org/antlibs/antunit/autoload.xml <autoload ivyconfig="ivy-config.xml" antlib="org.apache.ant.antunit"/> - then it "installs" all the required jars specified in the specified Ivy configuration file into ~/.ant/antlibs (thats the repository Ivy uses here) - it loads the antlib.xml as defined Jan
