I know NAnt sees frequent use (well, I always use it for my CI builds) but there has been no new official release since December 2007. Is the project receiving active development any more or is it dead-pooled? It worries me that if I carry on using it, and it stops tracking the latest version of .NET, I'll eventually be left with a massive job when it comes to upgrading systems to a version of the framework that it can't build.
Has everyone else gone over to some other tool like MSBuild these days?

It seems as if development will be more active in the near future. This is from a message from the developers mailing list from 05 Mar 2010:
since we are in an early stage of getting drive on nant again, I want to ask if we could moving away from CVS.
My first proposal is to switch to subversion.

I'm also using NAnt for quite some time, and while I was a little bit concerned about the project being dead, so far NAnt did its job very well.
Update: NAnt 0.90 Beta 1 was released on April 17, 2010
Charles : NAnt 0.90 (Final) has been released May 8, 2010 -
