That's good, there's a chapter in Java Development with Ant that covers 
that.

groupid:
org.apache.ant

artifact:
ant
ant-junit
antlib-nunit

I'd keep the antlibs separate from the normal artifacts.

i'll look at it, but not this week. Got to get some slides on testing 
together for google research conference on automated testing.

There is a staging directory somewhere on the people.apache.org site 
where we can publish as an experiment. the repository people dont like 
it if projects accidentally publish to the real repository, especially 
if the releases arent signed by the PGP keys of the PMC.

We have that already, Kev and you added the necessary stuff to the
common build file.

In a subdirectory of ant or a sibbling directory?  One directory per
antlib?

There is one that publishes to the repository and one for snapshots
AFAIR.

While I didn't sign the RC I put up for a vote last week, I'd
certainly sign the beta.
