Hi Juergen,
Read the docs on the property task.
You want "refid" instead of "location".
<property name="local.filesetlist"
refid="local.fileset1,local.fileset2" />
Quote:
"location - Sets the property to the absolute filename of the given file."
"refid - Reference to an object defined elsewhere. Only yields reasonable
results for references to PATH like structures or properties."
