+Ant-Contrib library
+
+This library is for contributed Ant tasks that have
+not been approved for inclusion into the ant core or
+optional library.
+
+Requirements
+-------------------------
+Runtime:
+ Requires APACHE Ant Version 1.5 or above. Note, that output
+ handlers on the ForEach task will not properly report the
+ task which is outputting the message unless you are using
+ Ant version 1.5.2 or greater.
+
+ In addition, the <for> task will not work on versions prior
+ to Ant 1.6
+
+Compilation:
+ Requires Ant Version 1.6 or greater to compile and build the
+ package.
+
+
+Inclusion in your project
+-------------------------
+ The easiest way to use the tasks is to use
+
+<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml">
+ <classpath>
+ <pathelement location="your/path/to/ant-contrib-${version}.jar" />
+ </classpath>
+</taskdef>
+
+in your build file. If the jar file is on your CLASSPATH or in
+ANT_HOME/lib you can even simplify this to read
+
+<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml" />
+
+For projects which will run under 1.5 versions, you would
+use the .properties file instead of the antlib.xml file:
+
+<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties">
+ <classpath>
+ <pathelement location="your/path/to/ant-contrib.jar" />
+ </classpath>
+</taskdef>
