Stuart,

Not that I can remember the last time I used Ant but just want to say
'way to go'.
That syntax is so much more practical than Ant's choice of XML(Wasn't
XML based on S-Exps anyway, lol, we're coming full circle now).  I'm
guessing that those folks that use Ant a lot will be glad to have
their build files shrinking to fractions of what they would if they
continue in classic Ant build XML.

Congrats also on the Clojure book !

-Justin
