This seems to be causing a lot of grief. I'm really leaning towards having a list of elements at the project level and allowing those and only those values to be passed on the commandline. I'm not sure how feasible that would be with the way we pass properties to nested builds but I think it w

Unfortunately, the property task's overwrite attribute can't overwrite a readonly property--according to the documentation. So, if you are passing a command line argument into the NAnt 0.85 script and you want to munge that value internally, then you will have to create a second property initi

It seems a little odd that you are attempting to set the Draco property.  I’m assuming your build file was launched by Draco with a ‘true’ value and you are trying to change that to ‘false’?!   If this is true, I would recommend creating a new property and initialize it with the Draco pro
