get timeout patch

[Joshua Moore <jo...@armorize.com>]

Hi, For my work I needed to added a timeout option for the ant get task.
So I modified the existing Get.java to add the timeout option.  I wanted
to share this with the ant community so I am including a patch that has
my changes (made against the 1.7.0 source code).  To use simply add the
"timeout=#" to the get tag (# is the number of seconds before the get
operation it timed out).  I hope this is useful.

Josh, I'm afraid the patch got pulled. Please can you go to 
issues.apache.org and file it under bugzilla

Is the timeout a java1.5+ feature, or does it work on java1.4 and below?
