Re: [Firebird-docs] Request for testing gradle build to replace ant build

[Mark R. <ma...@la...>]

I think I have all the parts in place to replace the ant build(*). I 
have updated the instructions in the docbuilding-howto on my branch.

Is it OK to merge this? After merging, the old ant-based build will be 
gone. As some of the XSL changes are incompatible, it didn't make sense 
to keep it around.

Manual cleanup of the tools, lib, inter and dist folders will be 
necessary after this (though it won't hurt to keep them). I considered 
writing a gradle task to delete these folders, but I thought it would be 
simpler/better to do this manually.

*: I haven't written a task to replace the old fo2at task (which 
generates an Area Tree), although I have the parts in place to create 
one if it is necessary. Nor did I create a replacement for the fofix, 
docs, zip and the various cleanXXX tasks.
