Sure, but you can regard the body of a target as having an implicit <sequential>
block.
e.g.
<target name="a">
<taska1/>
<taska2/>
<taska3/>
</target>
<target name="b">
<taskb1>
<parallel>
<taskb2>
<taskb3>
</parallel>
</target>
<target name="c" depends="a, b">
<taskc1>
<taskc2>
</target>
you'll get the following dependencies among the _tasks_:
taska1: -none-
taska2: taska1
taska3: taska2
taskb1: -none-
taskb2: taskb1
taskb3: taskb1
taskc1: taska3, taskb2, taskb3
taskc2: taskc1
For example, if you limit the number of concurrently executed threads to 2, and
assume that taska1 takes much longer than whole target "b", then taskb2 and
taskb3 would not run concurrently, as otherwise the total number of running
threads would exceed. I hope that this makes my point clearer.
