Description

(extract from a discussion on dev list)

The doc is currently only one page and is part of the maven site.

The page is very long and tries to cover everything there is to know about the Ant tasks. Unfortunately it doesn't cover everything, as I've
seen going through the user list trying to find answers. So I'd like to make some changes to the documentation.

1. Move the docs from maven site to the Ant tasks, in subversion.

2. Split up the current one page into several more focused pages.

3. Create a reference section, similar in function to the documentation for Ant, to make it easier for Ant (=non-Maven) users to find their way.

This would be great! I also started using them, and wanted to fix an issue I submitted (MANTTASKS-116), but couldn't find info about where the source was!
