I know that we already have global properties and that this is looking at local properties, but could we no tlook further forward (towards Ant2) and try this...I can do that.
Is "define" a good name ?
Here's one vote for "my". Everyone in the programming
community would get that as a scoped entity immediately.
<define name="foo" scope="local"/>
<define name="bar" scope="global"/>
adding a scope parameter wouldn't be much use now, but for later on we could roll properties and local properties together with this strategy. Maybe people want to stick with properties because it's very well known and expressive, but then with local properties there's a semantic difference
global properties = <property/> local properties = <define/>
I'd prefer some kind of similarity between the naming of the two types, just out of neatness
