The best way is to submit a feature request through Ant's bugzilla. There
is a link on the front page of the Ant site. Then follow up on the Ant
developer list, and if you bug people enough, it'll get done. You'll get
a quicker response if you can attach a patch to the enhancement request

Thanks for the alternative expression, but my problem is that I can't figure how to

Does anyone have an example of acceptable syntax for using a regexp mapper in a
pathconvert?
I've tried many ways, but none work. The documentation says more complex nested
mappers are supported. http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/pathconvert.html

Let's say I have three different values of 'servername', "foo", "bar", and
"test", and three targets, "foo-upload", "bar-upload", and "test-upload".
That would suggest that my script should say:

You can look into ant's script task to facilitate this type of "complicated" logic.
In the javascript (if you choose) you can check values of properties and then choose
the route of execution. There's probably ant contrib tasks also for handling if
conditions based on the value of a property.
