514 Managing Build Complexity with Apache Ant 1.6
515 </h4>
516 <p>As Apache Ant is applied to increasingly difficult tasks,
517 its users are creating more complex and less legible build
518 files. This is due, in part, to the limited tools for
519 decomposition and code reuse within previous versions of
520 Ant.</p>
