That's unfortunate.  I missed the fact that things were going to be
not just moved, but deleted as well.

I'm not opposed to people trying to compete with CruiseControl or
other CI tools, but given that there are over 20 of them already
(http://confluence.public.thoughtworks.org/display/CC/CI+Feature+Matrix),
I'd rather just pick the one that works best for us.

Hudson has 1-click installation with Java WebStart and only took a few
minutes to get configured (not counting my attempt to check out the
root of the SVN repository instead of just the trunk), but I'm happy
with any system that will work in our environment.

That touches on two things that I consider mandatory: 1) higher
frequency than nightly (ie "continuous") and 2) super, super easy to
use (i.e. dashboard to show current status, graph to show trends,
immediate email/IM when someone breaks something).

It's pretty clear from the length of time that things stay broken
(although not recently), that the current system isn't as useful as it
could be in encouraging good behavior from us (the developers).  There
are tons of projects using CI servers.  It shouldn't be that hard for
us to choose and implement one.
