A patternset may have several nested <include name=../>,
each element contains one pattern, so why not combine your
patterns in one patternset ?
<patternset id="whatever">
<include name="jade/content/**"/>
<include name="**/*${yui.compression.js.source.suffix}"/>
</patternset>
note that include|exclude name="..." may be combined with
if|unless to control the use of a pattern via property, f.e
<include name="src/**"/ unless="prodbuild">
or use includes attribute with comma- or space-separated
list of patterns
<patternset
includes="jade/content/**,**/*${yui.compression.js.source.suffix}"
id="whatever"/>
or use includesfile, where each line of that file
contains one includepattern
<patternset>
<includesfile name="foobar"/>
<includesfile name="foobaz"
if="testbuild"
/>
<patternset/>
