Thanks for getting back to me Tom.

Actually I was thinking of something more along the lines of Apache Gump... http://gump.apache.org/  in that some system is constantly checking for updates to the cvs repository and periodically checks them out and tries to build them and then run a standard suite of tests against it. 

In the development shop where I work, we've found that sort of thing tremendously valuable as we have people working all around the code base simultaneously. It lets us know if someone inadvertently broke the build w/out having to discover it yourself and then be stuck until either a fix is checked in or the change rolled back. 

I usually start my day by checking the web site for our build and if it's "green" then I do a full update of the code base, and build while I'm reading forums, etc. Then, I know I'm good for the day to build and work with my changes w/out worrying about how far I may have drifted from other people's work (usually no more than a day's worth). 

Thanks again for your response and AWESOME job building jbpm etc. It looks like a great code set and I'm really looking forward to working with it.
