Well, IMO that's a real gotcha for WinUsers, as 
they are used to write '\' instead of '/'

and normally (my\normal/path\foo/bar)
it doesn't matter whether you
write \ or / or mixed

I've seen those behavior only when it comes to
\\fooserver\bla\bla\bla

What about a 'central' html file with common ant gotchas ?
There's already a lot of that in the manual but in different corners.

Not that i have to much spare time, just an idea

OK, where to put that in ?

<title>Writing a Simple Buildfile</title>
or
<title>Property Task</title>

and where to send to ?

Perhaps, but the manual does reference to the Javadocs for Properties
which describes the format of Properties files. What you've 'discovered'
is fully spelled out there. But if you want to update the doc with a
little primer about how .properties should be written, please send us a
patch ;-) --DD
