Windows build.exe

Hi there,

A while ago I sent a message to the ant-user mailing list saying that I had
developed a win32 executable for running ANT. I posted a URL with
a link to source code+exe 
http://southgatesoftware.com/jakarta/ant/

but it doesn't look like it made it into
the ANT distribution.

The source code has a trailing semicolon on one of the #include statements
in
one of the source files (just causes a warning at compile time) other than
that problem (which I have fixed)
I think it's a pretty useful addition to ant. End-users don't have to set
any environment
variables, just put build.exe in the $ANT_HOME/bin directory, add that
directory to
the path and voila, it just works!

Just wanted to know the status of this. I'm fairly new to the whole
open-source thing, so
maybe I've done something wrong.

-Mike

Hi Isaac,

Actually I did post my question to ant-dev twice with no answer.

Hi Michael,

You should probably post your question to the ant developers list.
	ant-dev@jakarta.apache.org

Someone there should be able to help you.
