Has anymore work been completed on the <msbuild-solution> task?

Nothing official that I know of, beyond what you've seen in the archives. I tend to agree that, unless you make the effort to dig back through this list's archives, NAnt looks like it's basically dead in the water :( But word is that a new release is due "any time now" so hopefully that's a temporary problem.

But I would like to investigate adding support for the 'solution' property as well as a few other things (like would it be possible to add a OutputDir property to the <msbuild> task). I don't want to start making changes however, until it's clear that <msbuild-solution> is the way that NAnt is going to go.

It would be a mistake to build any logic to parse VS2005 solution files into NAnt because that file format is almost certainly going away in the next version. (The only reason it's not an MSBuild file now is because MS basically didn't have time to finish it for VS2005).

However, it's also not important: msbuild.exe knows how to parse the solution format. It doesn't matter if you supply a project file or solution file, it will just build.
