go on then.

Ant doesnt have a DTD, so it doesnt need to worry about DTD compliance...if we
were to look at more rigorous descriptions of a build file, I'd go for Relax-NG,
as it is the only one to say that a task could have one attribute or another,
but not both.

Note that the new @ant.task xdoclet markup in the source could easily be
extended to include attribute tags (@ant.attribute required) for auto-generation
of relax-ng or even XSD schemas.
