antlib availability

           Summary: antlib availability
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.6Beta
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: gudnabrsam@yahoo.com


It is possible to write antlibs that are composed, for example, entirely of 
<*def> element sets and thus use no custom code.  Currently the way to make 
these available via antlib namespaces, as I understand it, is to package the 
antlib in a jar file with an appropriate directory structure, and deploy it as 
you would any other Ant add-on.  Would it make sense to create an ANT_HOME 
subdirectory specifically for "jarless" antlibs?  This could be implemented as 
a "classes" type directory that would work for classes and/or resources.
