Synchronization topic targeted to build agents
----------------------------------------------

         Key: GBUILD-3
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GBUILD-3
     Project: GBuild
        Type: New Feature
  Components: agent  
    Reporter: David Blevins


By synchronization I refer to a JMS topic that all agents listen to where we 
can send out Wait and Notify messages.  In short, the ability to Pause agents.

The usefulness of this feature is when we need them to wait for some state to 
become available online or if we need to poke at the queue or some similar 
condition.  An example is when the source is changed in an incompatible way and 
we want the build agents to wait for the next build before they continue 
running tests.  We could tell them to wait, then when the next build is 
available for them to download on their next build, we can tell them to 
continue.
