Thanks DD -- we are mostly an MS shop, but we do have a mixed set of developers. I'm actually part of a dev group doing Java and we are already using Ant for our build process (javac, junit, javadocs, deployment, even some 3rd party tasks for compiling Adobe Flex code and remote ssh connections to our staging server) and the success of this build process is what is prompting our existing buildmasters to take a look. So far they are very impressed, hence the desire to learn Ant rather than write a custom build tool on their own.
The problem is that we (and by "we" I really mean myself) don't have much prior experience with Ant, so "we" are learning it on the side (I picked up Steve Loughran's book "Ant in Action" which has helped tremendously). I'd like to be able to stick with Ant since we already have some part of the company using it, and have one (very important) guy in the company as my advocate.
