Excellent, I'm glad to hear a release is so close - that makes my day
actually!
And I'm quite familiar with the open source way of dealing with releases.
I've been involved in Jakarta projects for quite some time, and just became
an Ant committer. So definitely don't ask me when Ant2 is coming out! Or
even Ant 1.5 for that matter. :)
