Here is another idea. Since Ant 1.6, ant comes with an SCP task.
http://ant.apache.org/manual/OptionalTasks/scp.html
There is also an FTP task.
http://ant.apache.org/manual/OptionalTasks/ftp.html
So using either one of these, the promotion.xml file could be scheduled
as a Build step, to FTP or SCP the necessary files over. The user would
have control over this and hudson just runs the job on
build.eclipse.org. Denis would still get his logs saying who wrote what
and where, and users would be restricted to there directories that they
have access rights too.
It involves no Cron job, and would work with Slave instances, and on
Linux and Windows as well.
