In the case when a member of the community wants to submit a patch to enhance some core Ant functionality, and needs some simple helper class that may already exist in another Apache or Jakarta project (such as commons), AND the changes are too fundamentally embedded in existing code to make the helper class optional, what would be the best thing to do?
a) write a new class just for Ant (maybe refactoring existing Ant classes along the way) b) add a version of the other class to Ant's src structure c) add the other project as a dependency ...what, if any, additional caveats should be observed in whichever is deemed the correct choice?
