 The error message and the manual should have pointed you in the right direction here.

+ ```Question#5``` How do I handle EAR or War files?
 
----Question. Just got an App Server (mandated company standard) which needs EAR or War files . I have a Servlet app running on another servlet engine and want to bundle it up as an EAR. How can that easily be done in Ant. I currently delivery the servlet application in two jars, one is third party so I dont have source for it, the other is all my code. There are config files involved as well.

+ ```Question#6``` How to Sort FileSets?
+I'm JUST starting out with Ant, so please forgive me.
+
+I know the documentation says you can't count on the FileSets task sorting your files.  But this is exactly why I'm looking to something like Ant to handle my code compiles; I need them sorted.
+
+Has anyone come up with a workaround so that the files can be sorted alphabetically by name?  Any plans for future Ant enhancements to support this?
