Letting the build waiting for incoming HTTP requests will slow down the build 
and I dont see any reason why.

So could you please elaborate about your use case?
- who will create the http request
- what kind of request is it
- what data in the requests
- what should the 'handler' (Ant/something else?) do with that

Maybe Ant is not the right tool for that ...
E.g. if a request should start a build, the use of a CI server like Hudson is 
the better choice.



you can use <waitfor> to block for data; getting the values in depends on the format. Me, I have servlets that push out .properties files

<waitfor maxwait="3" maxwaitunit="minute" checkevery="500">
        <http url="http://localhost/myapp/index.html"/>
</waitfor>
