Hi, ORO is on its way to become retired inside the Apache Attic and Regexp will likely follow it in a few months time.
Apart from our own regexp-engine-abstraction-layer the only dependencies on either we have is inside the P4 tasks that use ORO's Perl5Util rather than plain regular expressions. At first glance it shouldn't be too dificult to replace the ORO usage with our own layer or even with direct calls to java.util.regex (we require Java 1.4 by now anyway). But before I change code that I cannot test myself: is anybody out there who uses the tasks and would be willing to build and test a modified trunk version of Ant if I removed the ORO dependency?
