Hi Prateek,

There is too much to discuss in an email. I would suggest you look
through the latest nightly documentation:

<http://nant.sourceforge.net/nightly/latest/help/>

Make sure you read through the Introduction and Fundamentals sections.
NAnt has a lot of functionality but it is lacking many tasks available
in Ant. You may need to create custom tasks and/or functions to
complement what is already available.

As far as I know NAnt does not support executing tasks in parallel. If
you have the time and can implement that functionality I'm sure that the
NAnt developers would be consider adding your contribution.

NAnt may or may not have the ability to "do file operations like ant
does." The file operations I use are fairly simple, copy, move, and
delete. Browse the Task Reference to see what might be useful.

Also check NAntContrib <http://nantcontrib.sourceforge.net/> if you
haven't done so already. The tasks it contains might be useful depending
on what you're doing.
