[ANN] Apache Ant 1.5.4 has been released

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Apache Ant 1.5.4 is a minor bugfix release that adresses problems in
two domains:

(1) With JDK 1.4.2 Sun has changed the entry point for javah,
therefore Ant 1.5.3's <javah> task doesn't work on JDK 1.4.2 anymore.

(2) The Visual Age for Java tasks had some major flaws.

If you don't use Visual Age for Java or <javah>, there is no reason to
upgrade from Ant 1.5.3.

Note that Ant 1.5.4 is the last release that supports JDK 1.1 at
runtime.  The next major release of Ant, Ant 1.6, will require JDK 1.2
or later to run.  Compiling for a 1.1 target JVM will still be
possible with Ant 1.6.

You can download Ant as binary distribution from
<http://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi> or as source distribution from
<http://ant.apache.org/srcdownload.cgi>.

Thank you for using Ant.
