Nice summary.

One more thing to add : try to find a library that supports both .NET and
Mono, and Windows And Linux ...

Well, this is just an opinion:  If you find a library that is already
built and (probably more importantly) supported then your task will have
the benefit of any bug fixes/ improvements to the library for free.

I think this is worth the trade off of introducing a project dependancy
to nant.  Another side effect benefit is that if a better library comes
along it (usually) makes it easier to swap your legacy code out since
most of the detailed implementation should exist in your library and not
in your client code.

Any comments?

If I just wrap a library, that introduces a dependency into NAnt. Is
this ok to do?
