If you're reffering to the prefix - of course, that's how NS works. The URI however should be chosen by the antlib author ( maybe based on some rules specific to ant ), and should serve as an ID of the library. My proposal is to use the (main) package name. There are other options - but I don't think every end user using it's own name for an antlib is a good one. Costin
