To package things as zip, you simply do package(:zip) and then call
include() to add stuff in it.
If you need to generate several zips, each needs a different id. By
default, the id is the project's name. You can change the id by doing,
e.g.,
package(:zip, :id => 'subprojects').tap do |zip|
zip.include project('foo')
zip.include project('bar')
...
end
For your csv file, you can either create a new packaging type as describe
here: http://buildr.apache.org/rdoc/classes/Buildr/Package.html#M000751
Or you can simply add a file task to your project's packages.
packages << file('index_subprojects_01.01.csv')
p.s. is it normal that it tries to compile all projects when you use

Yes, buildr assumes parent projects are dependent on all their subprojects.
(And there is no easy way to change that)
