Maybe you need to build exacly what solution says. But I need to override
some settings. For example output path (outputdir attribute). This overrides
something, which is in .csproj. It is handy in some situations. For the same
reason could be handy to specify other compiler options. Good point by Matt,
that it could be specified by compiler (c#/vb), though.

As I see <solution> task, it is something that take vs solutions or projects
and integrate it into nant. Level on which you integrate should be
adjustable. Someone want to just build that solution file (build win project
on Linux without vs), someone want to use just file list from csproj and
override all other options. IMHO current implementation fullfil this idea
(to some extent).

True. There could be more options in future, or more options in another
compiler (mono) and you want to use it for some reason. Why update .csproj
when you could update .build file? For build servers where csprojs are
submitted by developes you will need to read and change their csprojs. I do
not like this much...

Oh. Thanks! I do not know about this vs feature. resx havn't problem with
this, but embedded xmldoc have :-(.
