Re: [nant-dev] Re: Add support for multiple filesets to the zip task.
Troy, I think I'd still prefer to have support for multiple top-level filesets, instead of nested fileset. The nested fileset does not have a relation with its parent fileset, as it would only be used when you need a separate base directory. You'd also need to be able to get a separate set of matching files for each fileset (as you need to know what files correspond with what basedir), so I don't think it makes much sense to have nested filesets. Also, having multiple top-level filesets would better match the Ant implementation.

I was just pointing out a way to work around the limitation with the zip task and current builds. Ian Ant supports this in various (all tasks that use filesets ?) tasks.
