Hi Brant,

Good scenarios. In the first one, you have to really ask why someone
might want to do this, you might consider it if you were building a
commercial product to support application development (say a new SCC
system) and you wanted to offer NAnt users very good integration by
shipping a bunch of tasks for this purpose. I'm not sure where I stand
on the other two scenarios - so I'll refrain from making a generalised
judgement.
