That will -definitely- keep it from working. NAnt uses reflection in combination with the TaskAttribute to match your attributes up with your properties and a privately scoped property not only won't show up in reflection, but NAnt wouldn't be able to assign to it even if it did.
Hmmm... Is there a flag to AttributeUsage that can specify public properties only? 'twould seem nice if the compiler could have caught that and failed the compile.

I'm not sure - without looking at your source, I couldn't be sure. All of my attributes are marked as public, and I've never had this problem.
