NAnt Update

This post announces the release of NAnt 0.86-beta1.

When I was developing HardQuery R2 Update 3, I thought I should move to MSBuild completely because NAnt would be no longer active.

But today, I saw a post on Monologue that announces new NAnt and suddenly found that I was absolutely wrong. So why this project goes live again?

I tried xbuild which is part of Mono and clone of MSBuild targeting non-Windows platforms and the latest implementation was not ready for my usage.

So NAnt is still the best choice on non-Windows platform before xbuild goes older. According to the release notes, this new version is very promising.

BTW, I always think the guys should create an icon for NAnt!
