-    system resources but also zip entries, tar entries, paths, ...

-    <p>
-    Ant 1.7 starts outsourcing of optional tasks to Antlibs. 
-    The .NET antlib in preparation will replace the .NET optional tasks which ship in Ant.
-    Support for the version control system Subversion will be only provided as an antlib to
