-------------------------------------------

Sounds like a good idea to me.

> Change focus of build from projects to Build Definitions

> Rather than using projects as the mian focus for continumms build system, why 
> not use the build definitions?
> For example:
> Currently If I have a project with 3 build definitions, each scehduled to run 
> nightly at 1,2 and 3am then the first will be triggered at 1am, the Project 
> will be in a "Building" state and the cvs update will take place, assuming 
> changes have been made the required build is then run.
> Assume a change is made before 2am.
> At 2am the second build definition is triggered and agian the Project will be 
> in a "Building" state, if I were to view the "Show projects" page now, I 
> would not know if the first build was taking over an hour or if the second 
> build is taking place as the focus is on the project, not the build 
> definition.
> Finally at 3am the next build is trigger, but nothing has changed, so the 
> third build definition is never built.
> It seems more sensible for the Show Projects page to be replaced with a show 
> build definitions page and for the build definitions to be named (currently I 
> have to examine the output to see which build definition was used for a given 
> build of a project.
