Myrmidon is one of the Ant 2 proposals currently in development. You can

<p>
Myrmidon is a general-purpose <i>task engine</i>. It contains the basic
building blocks for assembling any sort of task-based tool. Ant 2
is an example of such a tool, which could be assembled using the Myrmidon task
engine, and a library of build related tasks.
</p>
<p>
Currently, Myrmidon is a prototype of what a task engine might look. It
includes a small set of tasks and data types. We are currently porting
many of the Ant 1.x tasks to the Myrmidon task engine.
