tasks/system/TaskdefTask.php
Register a task for use within a buildfile.
This is for registering your own tasks -- or any non-core Task -- for use within a buildfile. If you find that you are using a particular class frequently, you may want to edit the phing/tasks/defaults.properties file so that it is included by default. You may also want to submit it (if LGPL or compatible license) to be included in Phing distribution.

TODO: -- possibly refactor since this is almost the same as TypeDefTask (right now these are just too simple to really justify creating an abstract class)
