Release Notes - Maven 2.x Ant Plugin - Version 2.1

** Bug
    * [MANT-4] - Generated ANT contains hardcoded "get" tasks that
look at the "C:\" drive etc... when using a local repository
    * [MANT-30] - classcast exception when running ant:ant on
tagtraum.com's gcviewer project
    * [MANT-32] - java.lang.ClassCastException when packaging jeuclid-3.0.1
    * [MANT-34] - The generated maven-build.xml and
maven-build.properties contains absolute path to local repository
    * [MANT-35] - The generated maven-build.xml has paths that contain
\ characters on Windows
    * [MANT-36] - Use correct file encoding when writing build files
    * [MANT-37] - Wrong path to test resources in maven-build.xml
    * [MANT-39] - Always specify source/target options for javac

** Improvement
    * [MANT-6] - "test" targets should fail if junit.jar not present
    * [MANT-7] - "test" target should support running a single test -
just like mvn test does
    * [MANT-22] - Make it possible to run the package target without tests
    * [MANT-38] - Use reporting output directory configured in POM
    * [MANT-40] - Use includes/excludes configured for Surefire when
running tests

Enjoy,

-The Maven team
