[PATCH] Ant Presentation for local Java Users Group

[Erik Hatcher <er...@earthlink.net>]

Tonight I gave a technical overview of Ant for the local Java Users Group
that is starting to form.

Here it is for all to benefit from (or tear it up because I have no idea
what I'm talking about! :).   A patchfile is attached to add it to the
resources page.  The zip of the presentation and Ant examples are at:

    http://erik.hatcher.net/ant-jug.zip

The zip (built from Ant itself, of course!) contains the PowerPoint
presentation file, but if you just want to see that directly, its available
at:

    http://erik.hatcher.net/ant-jug.ppt

Feel free to critique it and give me feedback if you find any technical
mistakes or have comments on it.

    Erik

p.s. I used the the latest 1.4 beta build and it all worked fine (after
getting the latest version of Xalan).  I also demo'd the Log4J capabilities
using the SocketAppender with Chainsaw (thanks Conor!) available at
http://www.geocities.com/oburn/chainsaw/

I could crank out a PDF version of the PPT file, for the benefit of those
people who lack PPT rendering facilities. However, I dunno if its ethical to
support PDF these days, not with Adobe arresting Russian programmers they
dont like. Maybe someone could generate an SVG version from OpenOffice.org
instead.

I apologize for the mistake in the URL.   I've renamed the file on my server
so the Jakarta links will work fine..... which was more involved because I
had the URL in the presentation *and* in the .zip file, *and* in build.xml.
See what troubles a simple mistake can cause?!   *sheesh*..... sorry 'bout
that.

The correct links are:

    http://erik.hatcher.net/ant-jug.zip

and

    http://erik.hatcher.net/ant-jug.ppt

I apologize for the mistake in the URL.   I've renamed the file on my server
so the Jakarta links will work fine..... which was more involved because I
had the URL in the presentation *and* in the .zip file, *and* in build.xml.
See what troubles a simple mistake can cause?!   *sheesh*..... sorry 'bout
that.

The correct links are:

    http://erik.hatcher.net/ant-jug.zip

and

    http://erik.hatcher.net/ant-jug.ppt

Now that it's on our website and in Erik's announcemant and all that,
I think it would be easier to symlink it on the hatcher.net server 8-)

That would be jug-ant.zip, not ant-jug.zip. Same for the PPT.
