I know what ANT is; I use it every day. Having looked at the linked-to announcement, where they say "don't bother upgrading unless one of the two specific bugs fixed bothers you", it seems to me that it's rather not worthwhile to post this to slashdot. It's not NEWS after all. There are websites (freshmeat, among others) dedicated to this sort of announcement.
I can understand posting to/. when some major software is released, like a kernel or apache webserver or some critical security fix, but please; this release is probably the most trivial ant release ever, and people don't rely on ant the way they rely on httpd.
