This section describes the direction of the EL4Ant development. The first objective is that the core EL4Ant system becomes independant from plugins, so the base model of the project description file and the plugin API is frozen, considering pluggable enough for plugin developer to have liberty to extend most of the base features. From that point, EL4Ant 1.0 will denote the build system API, and each plugin will live alone with its own versioning and dependencies.
To acheive this aim, the following steps has to be reached:
plugin and

onlinelib independant from the core APIupdate plugin to manage EL4Ant releases and
plugins. Its targets will help download and upgrade plugins in the EL4Ant
project or upgrade the whole EL4Ant project itselfruntime.arguments attribute and

add attributes to control binary module registration in sets. Process to test
binary packages in the same project. Request 1461140 fixed.load target before
