its great to see you getting the hang of things...though there are many
refactoring opportunities with your build file

a) instead of creating one large target, try to break it apart and
define dependencies using the depends attribute on <target/>

for example you could define a pre, process, and post targets...with the
pre deleting then making dirs, process just generating transformation,
then the post doing any cleanup

b) the uptodate task will check  if a source file  is up to date (date
wise ) with its target

  <uptodate property="xmlBuild.notRequired" 
targetfile="${deploy}\xmlClasses.jar" >
    <srcfiles dir= "${src}/xml" includes="**/*.dtd"/>
  </uptodate>

the above will set xmlBuild.notRequired it date of targetfile (xmlClasses.jar) 
is up to date with all dtd under ${src}/xml directory

details here http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/uptodate.html

then u will have to process based on the result of the property (if set or not)

you could create a target for each xslt process, then use if/unless attributes 
with this property...you would have to createa an uptodate entry per transform 
as well

though the problem is since u are defining transforms on a directory by 
directory basis, the only gain u will get if no files 
have changed in the entire dir (then that transform will not run)

note: I would investigate the ant-contrib task as you will be able to do some 
iteration...at some point you would rather generically define a process then 
iterate over a list of dirs....small steps first though
