An automated build process (perhaps Gump/Alexandria, although that seems
to serve a different purpose) that would generate nightly builds off a
pure, unadulterated CVS of the source.  A milestone build would just be
a particular nightly build that was moved into a "milestone" directory.
This would make it easy to i) generate milestones and release and ii)
keep track of the exact binaries we've distributed.  All committers
would have necessary write access to the relevant directories, so any
committer could put out a milestone.  Releases would basically be
handled identically to milestones.  Having set this up in a commercial
environment (although we used Perforce and not CVS) I know that it's not
particularly difficult.  Especially with Ant in the picture.  But we can
hash this out later, after the current release is out the door.
