Yes, we're using CC 2.0 at work and nothing dramatic has changed that I
can tell. The configuration file is now in XML format and we are using
the HTML formatted e-mail notification. I'm sure there are other
improvements, but the configuration inside the WAR is still present (I
believe) and its still fiddly to get configured completely right.
Its well worth having some type of continuous integration process
running though. By all means automate your builds somehow, even if its
a cron job nightly running a shell script to checkout a fresh copy of
the code base, run Ant, and send an e-mail of the results. :)
