I agree, that is what I meant: there were people who installed Contrib to have <if> element, but in reality you did not need that you could just use Ant's built-in features like you said. In my opinion installing Contrib to use <if> was a demonstration of not having understood how Ant works.

I still read with my 5th graders every night. It's a nice time to connect with them and wind down before sleep.


I haven't tried it yet, but I came across this alternate syntax for XSLT which is much more friendly:
