I like Nant very much. I do a lot of scripting with NAnt. It is a great little tool.

Since NAnt is pre 1.0, when problems occur, I often think if that it is a problem with NAnt itself, but this is not always the case.

One funny example: After running the oracle scripts I parsed the log output to make sure there was no problem. I was testing this with a small log file and it was fine.

I used the task to load the file contents to a string property and used a regex to search for errors.

When I used this script for a large log file, I stopped getting the "build failed" message at the bottom, because I was printing the error messages.

Because the "build failed" was hiding at the top, I thought NAnt crashed, but it worked fine.

It would be better for NAnt to have a 1.0 release. Any reasons why not?
