This help page claims that Eclipse Indigo includes Ant 1.7.1, when in fact the version of Ant is 1.8.2

http://help.eclipse.org/indigo/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.user%2Ftasks%2Ftasks-ant-version.htm

Reproducible: Always

I think we should remove the version number in the help files, and just write something like "The Eclipse platform provides a recent stable version of Ant as a plug-in library. The installed version of the org.apache.ant plug-in can be found in <b>Help &gt; About Eclipse &gt; Installation Details &gt; Plugins</b>."

Makes sense to me. Applied the suggested wording + a minor change to HEAD
