[Anthill] Ant 1.6.2

Hello,

We are using the latest Anthill OS with Ant 1.6.5 on Windows and it
works fine. We've used this combo both with JDK 1.4.x and JDK 5.

Make sure you set the anthill.home property in
anthill.anthill.properties in your Anthill user's ${user.home}. This
file should be there with the right value in it if you went to the
main anthill web page and set Anthill home after your upgrade.

We had a circular problem with version.txt updates and change
detection causing "extra" builds with the CVS version adapter on 1.8,
but have worked around them by using the PropertyFile version adapter
for continuous builds and CVS adapter only for nightly and release
builds.

Best,
Scott S
