           Summary: enhance description
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5.1
          Platform: All
               URL: http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/tstamp.html
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: hauser@acm.org


with the current documentation, it wasn't that easy to get tstamp running, it
appears that
1) if the tstamp format is set in a calling target or the default target, it  
   appears not to be available in a dependent target
2) furthermore, it would be great to have extended list of tasks/properties that
   typically benefit from tstamp formatting - so far I see the three standard
   properties TODAY, DSTAMP, TSTAMP as well as the touch task, I guess there 
   are several more...
