Another issue to consider. I don't know if it's strictly a 1.6.1 issue or further down the line but the ant developers should consider it.
I have been working with the jakarta-commons/net project to create a more capable system, able to detect what system its FTPClient class is connecting with. You may remember several complaints over the last couple of months about our <ftp> task not working on non-unix ftp servers. The improvements in commons/net will allow the correct server to be auto-detected in the most common cases, and in those odd cases where this is not possible, it will be possible to indicate explicitly which parser is to be used (i.e. in ant, a new parameter to the task). Thus it will be possible to rewrite our <ftp> task to solve these long standing problems. This version of commons-net (1.2.0) has not yet been released but can probably be released in less than a week. It seems from this thread that these changes will come too late for ant 1.6.1. Please correct me if that's wrong. Can someone tell me what plans, if any, are contemplated for ant 1.6.2?
