i do the same all the time, except i prefix the property name w/ the
function name.
there isn't an alternative in nant at present.
for my money, if there were, i'd prefer the following syntax:
<call name="function >
<property name="foo" value="bar" />
<property name="momo" value="lala" />
</call>
with a mechanism to keep the param properties local to the "function"
(i.e. don't collide w/ the global property namespace).
but it's all moot at this point...
