Hi,

Ant 1.8.0RC1 has been released.

Some of the new features are :

   * a new top level element extension-point allows build files to be 
extended with custom targets more easily
   * if and unless attributes will be evaluated according to the values 
of the properties entered if these properties evaluate to true, false, 
on, off
   * Ant now requires Java 1.4 or later
   * new task include provides an alternative to <import> that should be 
preferred when you don't want to override any targets
   * numerous bug fixes and improvements as documented in Bugzilla and 
in WHATSNEW

See http://ant.apache.org

Regards,

Antoine
