According to:
   http://ant.apache.org/manual-1.6beta/CoreTasks/import.html
    
http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?NewAntFeaturesInDetail/ 
Import

I believe I should be able to do the following:

common-tasks.xml snippet:
<project default="help" name="common">
   <property file="default.properties"/>

   <target name="prep">
...
   </target>
</project>


build-tasks.xml snippet:
<project default="help" name="build">
   <import file="common-tasks.xml"/>

   <target name="prep" depends="common.prep">
...
   </target>
</project>


build.xml snippet:
<project basedir="." default="prep" name="subscriber">
   <import file="../sys-build/build-tasks.xml"/>

   <target name="subscriber" depends="prep" description="Create jar">
...
   </target>
</project>


When I run build.xml::subscriber I get:

BUILD FAILED
Target `common.prep' does not exist in this project. It is used from  
target `prep'.

Am I missing something? Can imports be nested in this manner?

Thanks,
Corey
