Thank you Eric and Steve for taking time to answer questions this week. I look forward to reading the book and using what I learn. And thanks to JavaRanch for providing the forum. I learn something new every time.

I'd like to thank everyone here for the excellent questions and the opportunity to present our work to you. JavaRanch is a great place, but unfortunately I have so many e-mail lists and my jGuru Ant Forum to keep track of that I won't be able to be here full-time.
I am, however, always around on ant-user, Ant's official e-mail list, and its ant-dev counterpart. By all means keep in touch and get in touch on these other forums if you run into any trouble using Ant - there are many fine folks out there to help, including Steve and myself.
Thank you, JavaRanch, for having me as a guest and I'll peek in from time to time and see how things are going!

Well, is my face red!
Sorry, I missed that. The 4th winner is:

Chris Reeves

Congratulations Chris.
The program I use randomly selects the winners from all the posts. I have to eliminate those that are not qualified. I missed doing that with Steve.

Well, I guess that shows that the giveaway process is truly random. I hope all four winners enjoy their books, and enjoy working with Ant in the months to come.
For those who didnt win, better luck next time. You can grab a couple of chapters from our web site, and as the book should be in the shops next week, you can have a look at there and decide whether it merits parting with any of your local currency for.

(who wonders of the reason that Borders doesnt let people plug laptops into their power sockets in cafes is to stop us developers working there and treating it as a big library)
