02/22/2010: Schmant Emma task package 1.1 released

The Emma task package has been updated to work with Schmant 1.1.

02/18/2010: Schmant 1.1 released

From version 1.1, JSR 223 scripting support is no longer used for running build scripts. Instead Schmant integrates with the different supported scripting language implementations directly. This made it possible to vastly enhance the support for closures. Now many Schmant methods accept closure arguments, closures can be added instead of tasks to task executors, etc. The ScriptTF task is no longer necessary and had to be removed as a consequence of the refactoring. External dependencies have been updated to their latest versions. There have been a lot of minor changes. See the release notes and the change log for details.
