Whirlwind Tour of Ant

This month's meeting will be Tuesday Nov 19th from 7 to 9:30 PM.
Our meeting location for this month will be at the Wyndham Garden Hotel at
the corner of Hammond Drive and Barfield.

Ant has become one of the most popular tools in the Java developer's
toolkit. Come get an introduction to this tool and see what it can do for
you. We'll cover the basics of build file creation, the most common built-in
and optional tasks and integration with XDoclet. We'll also spend a few
minutes on the .Net version of Ant called Nant.

Joey Gibson is the author of Ant Developer's Handbook from SAMS and is a
Senior Consultant for BravePoint in Atlanta. We will be giving away copies
of the book, plus some other goodies from SAMS so be sure to attend!

Announcements:
Atlanta Java Software Symposium on November 15-17th.  We look forward to
putting on a great conference for our attendees.   AJSS will become an
annual event in the Atlanta area taking place in the fall.  We still have
some openings left for this show starting Friday.  If you are interested,
