You should think about using telnet. As often said on this list, SCP is
more secure and SSHD is running on most (Linux) machines.

If you have the plugin already, the easist think is wrapping that into a
task:
provide an
public void execute()
method which starts that. Then use <taskdef> (maybe with a huge nested
<classpath> for all the
dependencies of your plugin) in your buildfile for mapping that new task
to a name and use it.

SVN Antlib (not released yet, so you have to build it for your own)
http://ant.apache.org/antlibs/svn/index.html
or
wrap the svn executable with <exec>

Mmmh ... are you trying to write a plugin that invokes Ant for doing all
the stuff?
Why not just simply write a buildfile? You could invoke that on command
line, by a build server
or from Eclipse using its Ant View / External Tools.
<javac>, <jar> ...

<telnet>
When using multiple targets you could iterate over a list of IP-adresses
using <antcontrib:for>
