I believe you would also need to include the Intalio copyright from NOTICE
since I'm pretty certain the idea7x task was written, or at least derived
from, the original contribution from Intalio.   (git log on idea7x.rb
doesn't go beyond 2008).

Hi,

Thanks to both of you for the clarification.  I'm including the  
Intalio statement in NOTICE, too.

(I've pushed an initial version of the separated code to github[1].   
I'll announce it on user@buildr once there's an actual release.)

Thanks again,
Rhett

Not sure if further clarification is needed but I contributed the idea7x
task and it was closely derived from the original idea task.
