We're having some issues with NAnt and lc.exe. Specifically with Active Reports. My biggest problem is that I really don't understand the whole licensing procedure. I started out having to delete the .licenses file because the system was blowing up if it already existed. Why I had to do this, I

Build.bat? Just getting around to testing this out and there is no build.bat. No build bat in the nightly build(040723), no build.bat in the 0.84 release. Build.bat would be a great thing and I would love to test it. can you post the contents of the build.bat that you have? Thanks in advance
