Just some thoughts,
I strongly agree to the proposed technology changes, particularly in

with the objectives to make Continuum a slick CI server, I think the
design
changes is a good move as well. In my opinion, having plugins will
provide
a platform for flexibility and a workflow-type of approach in
managing the
builds.

My proposed features would be the following:
1. Aside from the improvement in the UI, I think a visual
representation of
statistics would be nice. Graphs of the success rates, charts of
project
health, etc. I think Bamboo has it as telemetry.
Yeah, though I think we can be creative here - both by allowing
plugins and by looking into different ways to represent it. I really
want my sparklines :)
2. Distributed builds, this has been started before but it was
never used.
I think this would be a strong point in using Continuum if it were
available. Hudson has it, iirc. I think implementing it as a
plugin would
provide more control to it.
I think that actually this needs to be a fundamental part of the
design - by decentralising the data. The plugin side would be more how
the resultant data is handled?
