I've cleaned up a variety of little bugs in the solution task as
follows:

=20

Leaks temp files under some circumstances.   Fixed.

Define settings are not read from project file (e.g. TRACE;DEBUG).
Fixed.

Resource compiles blow up under some circumstances because of changes to
the ResGen task.  Fixed.

I've also added a couple new features because the WebDAV thing was such
a pain.  The Solution task now includes the following attributes:

=20

webmap(optional):

The name of a file that maps web project URLs to their physical file
path.  Each line in the file takes the form <web project
URL><space><Physical path to project>.  If this attribute is provided,
WebDAV is not used for the mapped project(s).

=20

Outputdir(optional):

The name of the path where output DLLs and EXEs will be placed.  This
overrides settings from the project file.

=20

excludeprojects  (fileset) (optional):

Projects that will not be built.  I added this because when building
from a solution it does not honor the Build|Configuration Manager
settings for the configuration.  I checked the .csproj and .sln files
for these settings but they aren't there.  I guess they are buried in
the .suo or .user files.  Anyway, my project has a bunc of sample
applications that we only want to build as part of the release and this
was a handy way to set it all up.

My changes are restricted to the NAnt.VSNet project.

How do I go about contributing all of this?
