Hi guys, I would propose to that instead of <antlib> calling ruper, the rupper people can provide a <ruperautoload> task (or whatever other name you want) that will do all the finding and downloading and then will invoque <antlib>.
If we do this, then we can concentrate here on the local <antlib> while someone else can take care of the external work.
