Yes, that is the plan.  Now it needs to be implemented.

I don't see that nightly builds need to be on lucene.apache.org. lucene.zones.apache.org is a fine host for such build artifacts. No one should rely on nightly builds. These are not releases, and, for legal reasons, we should not not make them look like releases.

I don't know about the whole Hudson thing anymore, as I'm not sure it is adding much value over just running the script. I'm tending to think we should just revert back to the script and the old way of storing builds, etc.. The only thing about the script I would like to see changed is it to be refactored into smaller scripts that can be run/tested separately.

One nice thing that Hudson does is make sure that we're not running multiple builds at once in the zone, which has caused problems in the past. Hudson also has lots of bells and whistles that Lucene Java is not yet using, like: automatically testing patches as they're submitted and adding a comment to Jira indicating whether they've passed; listing new Jira issues incorporated in each nightly build; full log output available over the web to help diagnose failures; etc.
