Your link takes me to a page with several links, including a big, bright "Download" button. Click that and all you see is downloads for cpptasks, so that's what I pulled thinking that the name was odd, but doing it anyway. If you click on the ant-contrib link instead of the tempting green button, you get more options, including the binary zip file. Thanks. I’ve seen the error of my ways.

Therein lies the problem. Only b5 is available now and there's no binary release for it. The source comes with its own ant script to do the build, but I clearly don't have the right JDK installed. I'll update here if I find one that works. Aha. Therein lies the problem. Only b5 is available now and there’s no binary release for it.

I try to build and get all kinds of errors using the 1.6 & 1.5 JDKs. Trying 1.4.2 now, but I'm now putting in more work that I expected/wanted to put in. I'd really like to use that trycatch task.

One task that I would probably add will be task for running Selenium Test Suites. Jim,

Use both extensively. I’m partial to SSH/SCP (using jsch) and almost everything that’s bundled with AntelopeTasks. Use both extensively.
