Should the Ant source tree (src/main/ and perhaps also src/tests/) be split
into subtrees?
[ ] No, leave it the way it is - one big tree, using <selector> to
conditionally compile pieces and route classes to various JARs.
[ ] Yes, split it into subtrees, where each tree maps to an output JAR, may
have its own classpath, and is compiled completely or not at all.
And while we're at it:
Should ant.jar and ant-nodeps.jar be consolidated?
[ ] No, leave these as two JAR outputs (and two subtrees if the first proposal
is accepted).
[ ] Yes, merge them into one ant.jar (and one subtree " " " " " "), to include all tasks and types with no linkage-level deps on 3rd-party libraries (even if there is an
implicit dep on a 3rd-party tool such as Perforce), and remove the "Core" vs. "Optional" distinction in the manual.
(Could prepare these changes on a branch if people would rather look at the
result before voting.)
