Hi,
Given this is my first post here, a bit of disclosure: I am an Ant
committer and have been for more than eight years. I'm a total newbie
when it comes to Clojure but have been doing Lisp (mostly Emacs Lisp
but dabbled a bit with CL) for longer than I'm using Java.

Stuart,
Not that I can remember the last time I used Ant but just want to say
'way to go'.
That syntax is so much more practical than Ant's choice of XML(Wasn't
XML based on S-Exps anyway, lol, we're coming full circle now). I'm
guessing that those folks that use Ant a lot will be glad to have

Driving ant from Clojure would be cool. I like the syntax of rake (but
I don't use ruby)
and started working on something similar. I also wanted to look at
ant's internals
to reuse some of its code (probably).
Here's what I'm working towards (taken from a presentation about
rake):

Carlos,
I went down a similar road once before, using a Ruby DSL to generate
the XML for Spring DI. This approach may offer the quickest initial
return, but it hits a ceiling very quickly. You end up having two APIs
with a totally unnecessary XML layer in between. Worse, the XML layer

Stephen,
You are absolutely right, and I hope to have all your syntax
suggestions implemented tomorrow.
By way of background: When I started, it seemed there were three
obvious avenues to pursue:
(1) write a Clojure DSL that generates the Ant XML
(2) write a Clojure DSL that sticks close to

I know next to nothing about ant, and what kind of control will lancet
provide, but the proposed syntax reminds me of what

Hi all,
I am playing around with using Clojure to control Ant, something along
the lines of Groovy's Gant. I don't know how far I will take this--
right now it is serving as a code example for the book.
Two questions:
(1) Anybody interested in seeing lancet carried forward into a real
proj
