You'd be surprised how much less lines of code you'd need when
compared to the Java version, really.

I toyed with the idea when I first read Peter Seibel's "Practical
Common Lisp (online here[1], but it's well worth of buying) and even
managed to get something like the above snippet working, actually more
like

(defparameter *project*
  (project :name "Ant" :default "echo"
    (target :name "echo"
      (echo :message "Hello World"))))
(run-targets *project*)

Will the new BSF release support any Lisp dialect?
