If this is a standard J2EE requirement, and if the task is really not
covered yet, then it is certainly in the scope of ant.

It is OK that you discuss on the list how you want to implement the task.
Maybe there are also some J2EE discussion groups where you can also get some
ideas.
When you have something ready, a report in bugzilla with the new files
attached to it as a tar or a tar.gz + a patch file made with cvs diff -u for
changes to existing code is what we like. Please include documentation and
test cases.

You should definitively develop against CVS_HEAD which is currently also
ant1.6alpha and will soon become ant1.7alpha. There is no 2.0 on the way.
