    Taking a first look everything looks fine so far… except for this: Use curly braces when accessing the property. So it’s Disk1" ICE_${BuildDate}" instead of Disk1" ICE_$(BuildDate)".

    UPDATE: Wait a minute… You’re trying to pass the property back from NAnt to CCNET? No, that won’t work. You may use the BuildDate property inside NAnt only.
