Hi Östen,

You can post messages to that area of the dashboard, each build stores
a property called "ccnetlistenerfile" which is (well was) an XML file
in your Artifacts directory...posting a string into that file
previously caused a message to show up, we used it to track the
progress of long running builds. I say previously because on the CCNet
version we're on that file does get created automatically any more,
the quick workaround...create the file :o) The format of the file
should be:

<data>
<Item Time="2010-12-09 11:33:28" Data="Hello World!" />
</data>

But...does it have to be in the message area? For images/coverage
numbers etc you could use the statistics plugin, this can be extended
and generally used and abused to suit whatever your needs are, a quick
example of ours: http://i56.tinypic.com/10pmsef.jpg

Cheers,
Jay
